Injured BB Coke Student Transferred to UHWI Due to Lack of CT Scan at Mandeville Hospital

The family of the injured BB Coke student, who was rendered unconscious after accidentally stepping on the shoe of a senior student and subsequently beaten, is facing additional challenges. The absence of a functioning CT scan machine at the Mandeville Hospital has compelled the child’s transfer to the University Hospital of the West Indies (UHWI) in Kingston.

Amidst growing concern and apprehension within the family, the Minister of Education issued a strong condemnation of the brutal attack. Neika Lewis brings us more on this developing story.
