Matthew Jack, the A field Sophia teen who was stabbed several times by his cousin during an altercation on Friday evening is on the road to recovery, relatives said yesterday.
“He is coming around,” his sister Onika said.
The assailant, Jack’s 28-year-old cousin has since been apprehended, a relative said.
Jack, 18, of Lot 372 ‘A’ Field Sophia had been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the Georgetown Public Hospital following the attack.
Onika had said she had noticed that her stereo set, cosmetics and a new pair of sneakers were missing when she returned home. She said her cousin was at home alone but when she confronted him he denied it. She said Matthew tried to speak to him but he became quickly enraged.
She said her cousin pushed Matthew “against the wall and start stabbing him till he fall to the ground,” adding that the injured teen was then rushed to the hospital.
