QC boy stabbed going home from volunteer group activity

A SIXTH Form student of Queen’s College, Renée Daniels, was robbed and stabbed multiple times on Thursday night as he was heading home from a volunteer group activity.

The Guyana Chronicle understands that the young man was in the vicinity of the Georgetown bus park when he was approached by few unidentified young men whose intention was to relieve him of his possessions. Daniels was subsequently stabbed multiple times after the robbery occurred and the men made good their escape.

Reports also indicate that Daniels, who is a distance athlete also, managed to get up and trot around asking for help. In his delirious state however, persons were said to have believed that the schoolboy was intoxicated and opted not to help him. One public-spirited man finally noticed his condition and helped him get to the hospital.

He was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on Thursday night and on Friday, this newspaper confirmed that he was in a stable condition.

When the Guyana Chronicle spoke to his mother, she posited, “God is with him.” She shared that her son is a strong boy and she is sure of his recovery, because she knows Almighty God saved him and will keep him well; she also related that doctors said the young man was responding well to treatment

His schoolmates visited him on Friday too and he was still very much concerned about his school work and his upcoming Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examinations (CAPE).

Anyone with information pertaining to this matter is asked to make contact with the nearest police station.
