Stabbing At Old Belize
posted (March 29, 2016)
The second stabbing occurred later that same day. Sometime around 4:38 on Sunday evening, police responded to a stabbing incident at mile 4 on the George Price Highway involving well known street figure Jason "Soup" Williams. Investigators say the incident stemmed from a fight between his younger brother Jermain Williams and two females at Old Belize. Sometime during the fight 21 year old Deon Warrior of Hattieville and the establishment's security guard got in the middle of the fight. That's when "Soup" Williams arrived in a vehicle, and allegedly knocked down Warrior, then stabbed him and attacked the security Guard before driving off. Here is what police said about it today.

Insp. Alejandro Cowo, CIB - Precinct 1 & 2
"Well there was an activity at Old Belize. There was a function there, several persons attended that function and just before the function was concluded, there was an altercation at the entrance of Old Belize's gate. Deon Warrior and another person saw what was happening and they intervened. As a result a male person inflicted two stab wounds to him and also injured the security guard. Dion Warrior was transported to the KHMH. He was treated and later released. I mentioned there was a fight between one of his younger family, the security guard and Mr. Deon Warrior went to assist to part the fight and as a result of that, Mr. Jason Williams allegedly inflicted the stab wounds to Dion Warrior."

Deon Warrior was stabbed twice: once to the back and once to the upper arm. Both he and the security guard were treated and released. As for Jason "Soup" Williams, he went to court today charged for Aggravated Assault.

Williams pled not guilty to the charge. He was offered a bail of $2,500 and his case was adjourned until May 25. Williams was also charged with grievous harm for allegedly stabbing Warrior. But that charge was withdrawn because there was no medico-legal form to certify the injuries.
