Two men are currently battling for their lives at New Amsterdam Public Hospital after they were brutally stabbed during a fight at a party following the President’s Cup horse racing meet at Port Mourant on Sunday night.
Yuhvendra Veenarine known as Chris, 22, of Bush Lot Village, Corentyne and Trevor Butcher, 20, of Rose Hall Town Corentyne Berbice were both at the after party at the Port Mourant racing turf when they were injured between the hours of 9 and 10 pm.
Stabroek News understands that Butcher was a bystander when a fight broke out between Veenarine and another individual (name unknown). Reports are that the fight resulted from an old grievance between Veenarine’s father and the father of the other individual. Butcher told the media from his hospital bed that he was at the “after party” with his uncles when he noticed two men fighting and beverage bottles being thrown in
