A Dominican identified only as “Jah Lee” has been beaten and stabbed to death in St. Martin on  Friday the St. Martin Island Times website is reporting.

According to the website the man lost his life at the Louie Constance Fleming Hospital after being beaten twice.

The website reported that Jah Lee was attacked, beaten and stabbed by a group of young men earlier this week and after receiving medical attention he was released on Friday.

However on Friday while walking in the district of Concordia, he was attacked again with a baseball bat. It is said that he was also stabbed for a second time.

The St. Martin Island Times said this time the victim was unable to recuperate from his injuries that he received to his head and died while he was being treated at the same hospital he was released from earlier in the week.

The reason for the attack is not known and the circumstance of his death have not yet been confirmed by the police, according to the St. Martin-based website.

    I wonder what is the motive behind beating the young man, and killing him in such a brutal way. And I am wondering, why after the first beating, he did not move back to DA, he should have known fully well the guys would be out for him again.

    The guy was beaten up by three other young guys. People were standing there but no one interfered. They boys were asking him for 600 euros he owed them. He actually fell when he got the last lash from a base ball bat in the head.
    Witnesses have to this day permitted to catch 2 of the 3 culprits all from the ghetto of Agrement.

        So, “thou shall not kill” no longer applies?
        There’s absolutely nothing that justifies taking another man’s life, let alone so brutally. Is that how we settle scores now? Shame on you!

    I hate to be the one to put it out there but, all Dominicans are ( and i am not the fist to conceive this) regarded as Haitians in other eastern Caribbean islands. ( i have nothing of any prejudice against the Haitians.) Why? because we’re the poorest and we are in large numbers in other people country.

        SO WHY ARE YOU SO DRAMTIC OF DOMINICAN BEING
        TAKEN FOR HAITIAN. AND IF THEY DO, WHAT EFFECT THAT CAN HAVE ON YOU UNLESS THE ALMIGHTY FATHER GOD CREATED ANOTHER HUMAN RACE SPECIFICLLY FOR YOU.

    • Trouble Intended
      September 18, 2011

      Very interesting comment. I could not and still do not understand why Haitians are treated so bad in DA. I guess the rest of the Caribbean have not forgiven Dominicans for such none sense.
      My condolences to the family. May this young man’s soul rest in peace, and if this is as a result of the harshness Dominicans are experiencing in other Caribbean countries, I do hope that we wake up and start practicing what we preach. Second Class should not exist in the Caribbean. No one deserves this.

    • Big-Bannan
      September 18, 2011

      I support you fully.We Dominicans are the first to call other people poor when we are infact living in ancient times. It is 2011 and our government has made us to believe we do not need an international airport, in the mean time they are landing 360 seater jets in Haiti.

      Is like DNO just cannot please allu people? When they put graphic pictures, people complain (myself included), now they using their discretion to please us who want images and at the same time show respect to the victims and some ppl still complaining?
      DNO kudos to you for blurring out some of the photo. I have no problem with that. I dont need to see the blood and the stab wounds to be convinced.
      Thank you

    The young man did not die at the hospital,i was present it happened right next to my job,he died on the spot about one hour after he was beaten and stabbed.The ambulance and smur officials tried very hard to regain his conciousness but it was too late cause he had already lost too much blood while on the ground.This took place about 3.30pm friday afternoon in concordia.
