RADHICA DE SILVA
Less than 24 hours after Denzil Brewster was fatally stabbed in a bar, another man has been killed in another bar brawl in San Fernando.
The deceased, Jason "Hakka" Stoute, was fatally stabbed at Edge Bar on Mucurapo Street, San Fernando, shortly after 6.15 pm yesterday.
Police said the altercation began when Stoute, of Duncan Village, became involved in a heated argument with the suspect.
The confrontation escalated quickly, following which the patron allegedly pulled out a knife from his waist and stabbed Stoute several times in the chest.
Police were called in and bystanders called for an ambulance. However, Stoute succumbed to his injuries before he could be transported to the hospital.
Investigators said they are now searching for the suspect, who fled the scene immediately after the attack.
Officers of the Area West CID are investigating the incident and are appealing to anyone with information to contact them.
