RHON­DOR DOWLAT

A po­lice in­ves­ti­ga­tion has been launched in­to a school fight at a sec­ondary school in east Trinidad, where a teen school­girl was al­leged­ly stabbed.

Po­lice said dur­ing the lunch break at the El Do­ra­do West Sec­ondary School, a fight broke out among sev­er­al stu­dents dur­ing which a school­girl was stabbed in the leg.

It is un­clear what type of weapon was used.

The in­jured girl re­port­ed­ly was tak­en to the Er­ic Williams Med­ical Sci­ences Com­plex where she was treat­ed and ward­ed.

Po­lice of­fi­cers are ask­ing par­ents to en­cour­age chil­dren who at­tend the school to give vi­tal in­for­ma­tion to in­ves­ti­ga­tors and ac­com­pa­ny them to the po­lice sta­tion—and/or the school's prin­ci­pal of­fice—to do so.
