Cops still searching for man who stabbed ex-girlfriend’s lover

The St Mary police are continuing their search for a man, who is accused of stabbing to death his ex-girlfriend’s lover in the Kidd Land community in Mason Hall, St. Mary on Thursday night, October 6.

Dead is 28-year-old Marvin Stennett, a labourer of Kidd Land in Mason Hall, St Mary.

According to head of the St Mary police, deputy superintendent Dwight Powell, the police are still searching for the suspect accused of the crime.

The man has been on the run since he allegedly killed Stennett two weeks ago.

Reports from the Corporate Communications Unit (CCU) are that at about 9:45 p.m. on Thursday, October 6, Stennett was standing along the roadway with a woman — later identified to be his girlfriend — when a man approached with a knife.

The man, who has since been identified by the police as the ex-boyfriend of Stennett’s girlfriend, stabbed Stennett several times and later escaped. The female was unharmed in the incident.

Stennett was taken to the hospital where he died.
