The victim and his father told the police that the driver of "Clean St. Maarten" had parked the Company's vehicle in the middle of the road and when he was requested to move the vehicle he refused and became very aggressive. The victim called his father and during the argument that followed, the driver of "Clean St. Maarten" wielded the machete and injured the young man on his left hand.
The same machete that he had previously been using to cut the grass in the vicinity of Point Blanche. After the incident the suspect ran away on foot in the direction of Back Bay.

After 20 minutes the suspect returned to scene and give police a different version of what had taken place. The suspect face was swollen and was arrested. Police are now busy trying to figure out, how exactly the incident occurred.
