A woman was stabbed in her West Bay home Monday morning by a man who entered the residence and attacked her, police report. The man remains at large and poses a public safety threat.
Emergency services were dispatched to the Mount Pleasant area of West Bay shortly after 8am, following a call to the 9-1-1 Communications Centre, according to the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service.
“It was reported that a male who is known to the victim, entered the victim’s residence and attacked her,” RCIPS said in a press release Monday evening.
