A dis­pute over un­paid en­trance fees at the Ar­gyle Wa­ter­fall in To­ba­go end­ed with a man be­ing chopped dur­ing a con­fronta­tion on Sat­ur­day af­ter­noon.

Po­lice said a 56-year-old farmer from Main Road, Ar­gyle, was lead­ing a group of five peo­ple across the riv­er, to al­leged­ly avert pay­ing en­trance fees, when he was con­front­ed by a craft ven­dor. The in­ci­dent hap­pened around 2.15 pm.

The ven­dor re­port­ed­ly told the farmer that it was un­fair to bring peo­ple in­to the site with­out pay­ing, as it would af­fect his busi­ness.
