Man Injured in Alleged Attack and Robbery in St John\u2019s, Antigua and Barbuda <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A man was taken to Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre late on Sunday after he was allegedly attacked and robbed on Sir Vivian Richards Street in St John\u2019s.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Antigua and Barbuda<\/a> Police said the victim was checking on a relative\u2019s home around 11:50 pm when he was struck on the back of the head, causing him to fall onto a concrete block and sustain a bleeding wound to his face.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The assailant reportedly continued the assault before stealing the man\u2019s phone and bag, then fled through a nearby alley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emergency services treated the victim at the scene before taking him to hospital. He was unable to identify his attacker, police said, complicating the investigation.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Authorities are appealing to anyone with information to come forward and urged residents to remain vigilant. The incident adds to ongoing concerns about street crime in the capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
