In T&T: Sons watch mom die

Spurned lover attacks woman at car dealership

(Trinidad Express) Sabrina Lalla-Mitchell’s tormentor turned up at her workplace and stabbed her to death yesterday afternoon —a killing witnessed by her two children.

She was stabbed at least seven times by a man who then stabbed himself in the abdomen and cut his wrists.

The children begged the man not to stab their mother. They were later led away, uniforms splattered with her blood.

Lalla-Mitchell, 31, was stabbed in the showroom of Bavarian Motors on Todd Street, San Fernando, where she worked.

The company sells and services BMW luxury vehicles.

Lalla-Mitchell was divorced earlier this year. She moved to Princes Town about a year ago with sons Saidan, ten, and Seph, 11.

Lalla-Mitchell, originally of Fonrose Street, San Fernando, is the daughter of Rev Dennis Lalla, a close friend and former spiritual adviser of former prime minister Patrick Manning.

Lalla-Mitchell’s killing took the murder toll for the year to 400, according to the Express’ count.
