Man Hospitalised with Facial Fracture and Gunshot Wound After Domestic Dispute Turns Violent

A man from Johnson’s Village in Antigua and Barbuda is recovering at the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre after sustaining a fractured face and a gunshot wound during a violent altercation over the weekend.

The incident took place in the early hours in Royal Gardens, reportedly following a domestic dispute involving the victim and his 18-year-old girlfriend, who also resides in the area. CLICK HERE TO JOIN OUR WHAT’S APP GROUP

Antigua and Barbuda Police say the situation escalated when the young woman’s brother allegedly intervened after witnessing the man pulling his sister during an argument.

In an apparent effort to defend her, the brother is accused of striking the victim on the left side of his face with a hammer, causing multiple fractures.

The violence continued when the victim was later shot in the foot. Investigators are still working to determine the circumstances of the shooting and have not yet identified the individual responsible.

  1. “domestic dispute involving the victim and his 18-year-old girlfriend” hold on “the situation escalated sharply when the woman’s brother intervened after witnessing what he perceived as the victim pulling his sister during an argument” okay, I don’t know about the gunshot part but the facial fracture I would say is well deserved. Laying hands on the man sister? Chupzz

  2. Sometimes people need to let couples be. At the end of the day is night and she’s going to choose that same man. Couples fight sometimes. I hope the brother never lay his hands on a woman

  4. Plenty a dem need to stop hitting people’s children. Argue and walk away. Why you laying hands. If a dat he do, he deserve the ass whooping he got. He will think twice before he try that shit twice. He f***ed around and found out. Non sarry dey!

  5. They say pull, he pulled his sister, didn’t say he had hit her and that gave the brother the right to arm himself with a hammer to inflict a blow to the guy, really now ?
    Not even a warning or a restrain ? Article never said the girl man was armed, says he pulled her.
    Now if that boyfriend when he saw the brother coming with a hammer had pulled a knife a stabbed her brother, I wonder what people would say ?
    Clearly that would be a case of self defense in the court of law.
    People must learn to solve issue without physical violence, now look how he could have easily murdered the girl man smh.

  6. An she till nar lef he. 🙄 Will the brother’s efforts to defend and protect his sis vanish in the smoke? 🤔 She should marry him because one thing is for certain, he will “NEVER” put his hands on her again….only for affection.

  7. WHAT THE HELL…! @…PATRICK: …LOST: … SHOULD HE WAIT UNTIL BLOW IS SHARED…?

  8. They are two young people going through their little issues. Let’s say for argument sake he asked her to come out the car she not moving so he tried pulling her brother came home saw what was happening and without knowing what was really going on resorted to violence. Now he’s in prison. As ole people say if me min know always come after.

  9. No man is supposed to hit any woman, would you like to know some man put his hand on your mother? So why should he hit your sister, you have problems and can’t get along just walk away, I bet he hould not be pleased with some man hitting his sister, he got what he deserved

  10. This news way behind, the sister has a man a na come out de man car, So wa he fu do drive around with she? She na come out de man car, hope de brother can coup with what he started, a na everybody tek last lick
