31-y-o stabbed to death in Manchester

The police in Manchester have launched an investigation, into the death of 31-year-old Glenford Isaacs, who was fatally stabbed in Christiana, in the parish on Monday night. 

According to reports, about 7:00 p.m., residents discovered the deceased along the roadway suffering from multiple stab wounds and alerted the police.

He was rushed to the hospital where he succumbed to his injuries while undergoing treatment.

According to Omar Miller, Councillor of the Craighead division, where the deceased lived, Isaacs was one of the advocates for opportunities within the community and had his hopes set on getting on the overseas farm work programme. 

"He was a ordinary young man who was trying to make it in life. I don't know him as any violent persons or why someone would want to do this to him..."

Miller added that Isaacs did several odd jobs including, farming , helping his relatives with their business  and playing as a Disc Jockey at events to earn a living. 

"I wouldnt clarify him as any trouble maker that was a nuisance to community. He was just a little party guy , trying to get ahead in life.... Its a most unfortunate situation. It is rough" Miller ended
