A student at Barbados Community College (BCC) is fighting for his life after being repeatedly stabbed on campus, prompting a lockdown and sparking concerns over security measures.The incident, of a kind unprecedented in the campus’ history, has left the college community in shock and raised questions about safety protocols.According to officials, the seriously injured male student, aged 19, was involved in an altercation with another male around 2:05 p.m.Students told Barbados TODAY that the traumatising incident left many in shock as ear-piercing screams echoed throughout the main campus when “the motionless body” was seen lying on the ground.In a press statement, police said the injured student was in a serious condition at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital after being transported by ambulance. He received several stab wounds to his torso.The incident resulted in the suspension of all daytime classes at the Howells Cross Road, St Michael campus, and the school was on temporary lockdown to allow police to carry out investigations.In a statement, the BCC said that a college nurse and a doctor from one of the nursing programmes responded to the injured student until the emergency medical technicians arrived at the scene.One student said: “I was sitting down in class and heard everybody screaming. When I got up I saw a girl pulling away a boy. I saw that he was holding something. I said it was a fight but then I realised that the boy on the ground was not getting up. Someone said that the boy with the knife stabbed him until he dropped down and when he was on the ground he stabbed him some more. We didn’t know if he was still alive because he was on the ground real long.”
