posted (July 13, 2016)

Last night, we told you about how Corozal Police captured Michael “Waniâ€￾ Baptist, the stepson of Eugene “Fatbackâ€￾ Webster after we put his picture on the news. Well tonight, he's at prison after he was taken to court on charges related to Webster's stabbing.

He was arraigned this morning of the offences of attempted murder, use of deadly means of harm, and dangerous harm. Senior Magistrate Sharon Frazer did not take any plea, and did not grant him bail. He was remanded to prison untilSeptember 2.

The stabbing happened in the wee hours of last week Wednesday morning at Fatback's Los Lagos home. He allowed Baptist to sleep at his house, and according to Webster, he was asleep when Baptist attacked him and stabbed him with 2 different knives. The family says that Baptist was trying to rob him.

Webster remains in a critical condition at the KHMH.  This is not the first traumatic injury he has suffered. Fatback Webster was Ralph Fonseca Jr.’s personal security when he was caught in a fatal accident.  Webster who was in the back seat survived with multiple major fractures.
