KINGSTON, Jamaica – A teenage girl has died following a brutal assault at an apartment complex off Spanish Town Road in St. Andrew on Thursday.
The deceased has been identified as 15-year-old Price Williams, formerly of Haile Selassie High School. Williams was attacked by a man, believed to be mentally unstable, at Palm Grove Court around 2:30 pm.
Reports indicate the girl was alone in her apartment when the assailant forced his way in. He then sexually assaulted her and beat her with a hammer.
The girl’s screams alerted a male resident, who intervened. The resident was stabbed by the attacker, who then fled the scene.
The injured teen was rushed to the hospital, where she later succumbed to her injuries.
Witnesses reported seeing a man matching the attacker’s description walking along Maxfield Avenue with blood on his clothes.
The police have launched a manhunt for the suspect.
