Old Road youth Denris Joseph formally charged with murder in the death of Recaldo Joseph

Twenty-one-year-old Denris Josiah of Old Road Village has been
arrested and charged for the country’s latest murder: that of 23-
year-old Recaldo Joseph, a fellow resident.

The incident occurred during the evening of Sunday, March 31,
when the two young men reportedly got into an argument in a bar
in the village.

The dispute is said to have escalated, ending with Joseph being
fatally chopped in the head, neck, and arms with a cutlass.
The incident also left a 19-year-old male in the hospital, nursing
the wounds he received to his wrist when trying to part the fight.
Joseph’s death is the country’s third homicide for the year.
