(Jamaica Gleaner) – Joseph Plummer still can’t come to terms with the “brutal beating” he received early Tuesday morning while at Harmony House, the studio of his friend, singer Beres Hammond.
Choking back the tears, the 51-year-old Plummer said that at one point during the “vicious three-man attack” he had “given up on life.
“I was getting kick from all angle … bare kick a reach mi. The man dem try to choke me … take them fingers and dig out mi eye and all have them finger up inna mi nose,” he said, tears rolling freely down his cheeks.
But, where was Beres Hammond during this incident which the police confirmed took place at his Dumbarton Ave studio?
“Beres was there telling the man dem to stop the foolishness, but dem wasn’t listening to him. Them just continue to beat me. If it wasn’t for Beres’ son, then I would not be sitting here today. He saved my life by dragging the man dem off me and chucking them outside,” Plummer said.
