Teen Claims Self-Defense in Tunapuna Confrontation

The 17-year-old boy who is currently a subject of police investigation has claimed to have acted in self-defense during a confrontation in Tunapuna that resulted in his mother’s boyfriend being injured. The incident occurred on November 19th. The teenager, accompanied by his father, met with Ian Alleyne to share his side of the story. Contrary to allegations, the boy insists he didn’t ‘chop’ the man but was attempting to seize a cutlass from him. According to the teenager, the man was naked and walking around their house at the time of the incident. The boy asserts that the injury happened while he was trying to disarm the man, not attack him. More information is expected to surface as the teenager will be revealing more about the incident on Crime Watch.
