-others wounded, chased
As Howes Street, Charlestown residents settled into their morning routines yesterday a man who reportedly `tripped out’ went on a chopping rampage which left two dead, two injured and many, who were chased by the cutlass wielding attacker, in shock.
Cedric Blackman, a 72-year-old shop owner, was the first to be hacked to
death by the attacker just after 9.30am in his Lot 57 Russell and Howes streets home. Several minutes later Ann Cham-A-Koon, 38, who lives a short distance away at Lot 60 Russell Street was fatally chopped by the man. Cham-A-Koon had left her house to get a closer look at the commotion that was unfolding in Charlestown.
