A 31-year-old courier was stabbed to death on Wednesday night after intervening in a fight involving his relative in Diego Martin.

The deceased has been identified as Stephan Roberts of Agua Santa Avenue, Diego Martin. He was pronounced dead at the St James Infirmary shortly after 9 p.m.

Police said that around 8.30 p.m., Kaleisha Dean, 21, a cashier at Super Pharm, Diego Martin, had just finished work and was walking along Sierre Leone Street when she was confronted by a co-worker, with whom she had earlier been involved in a verbal altercation at their workplace. The co-worker had reportedly been sent home by a supervisor following that incident.
