The police have taken into custody a man who has been accused to stabbing to death a labourer from Highgate in St Mary, during an altercation they had this morning.
The deceased has been identified as Gary Graham.
According to the Highgate police, Graham and a man were involved in a physical confrontation on Wednesday, but the police managed to quell the situation.
However, investigators say shortly before 8 a.m. Thursday, the two were again involved in a physical fight in the town when the suspect allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed Graham.
Graham reportedly collapsed face down and remained motionless. He was pronounced dead at the crime scene by a doctor.
His attacker is now in police custody and is expected to be charged soon.
