Police Investigate Alleged Sexual Assault at Pediatric Ward
Authorities are investigating an alleged sexual assault involving two minors at the Pediatric Ward of the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre.
The incident reportedly occurred on the afternoon of July 29, 2025, at approximately 3:49 p.m., and involves a 10-year-old female patient and a 12-year-old male patient, both admitted to the ward at the time.
According to initial reports, a House Officer at the hospital contacted the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) after the allegation was made. Police were subsequently notified and launched an inquiry into the matter.
Officers have since interviewed both the alleged victim, accompanied by her mother, and the suspect, who was supported by two of his aunts.
The investigation remains ongoing as authorities seek to gather further information surrounding the circumstances of the incident.
Hospital officials and police have not issued any public statements at this time.

@ Antigua Surf
Antigua ah SIN CITY, from top to bottom and in between, especially the higher ups, they are even worst than those at the bottom, the difference, they have protection. Just cast your mind back to Sparrow’s famous song Good Citizen, that iis them to the T
Awtfy
How you know it wasn’t the girl that trouble him??
Watched tv or been on social media or walked the streets or been in schools lately?
Every single thing is sexualized. Sadly, we are more interested in being our child’s friend than being their parents n protectors. So their little minds are warped into thinking anything goes for everyone.
We need Yahweh in our lives and homes
Lord lord lord. Pray for the world today. He’s too young for this. This is madness
Who did the twelve year old learn this from? Was he sexually abused as well? Dig into his background and arrest whoever has been molesting him. Also provide counseling and whatever support is needed to him and to his victim because if this is not dealt with now, a lifetime of hurt and criminality will ensue.
Your country? This is child’s play around the world. Yal better wake up and get the proper infrastructure in place to diagnose and treat these mentally sick people from a young age, keep them away from functioning society. This is sickening and so sad.
we need to read and digest the article. it clearly states the alledged victim was accompanied by HER mother while the alleged perpetrator was accompanied by HIS 2 aunts,
Somebody from the high hierarchy needs to be “thrown overboard” so there can be peace in the land again.
As troubling as this seem, what this and all the recent juvenile crime situation shows is that as parents, we are failing in our responsibility and we have to step up to the plate and do better or we loose our children to crime and criminal behaviour. We cannot be too busy to guide and teach our children about sex and sexuality. To many of us are leaving it up to social media and their friends and this only leads them into risky and unhealthy behaviours. Spend time and talk them about sex and the dangers of sex at an early age. Whether you teach them or not, they will learn. It’s your responsibility to ensure that they learn it the right way. The isolation and premature independence that you sometimes allow them without monitoring often leads to risky behaviours.
Totally agree with Antigua Surf!!
SMH. Get that boy some help and DISCIPLINE at once!!
Probably learnt this corruption from some of the staff that’s always locked away in offices doing more than you can imagine 😂
It’s carnival babee and sex is like the Sahara dust in the air! They’re doing the Jouvert wink up and whine bak!
