SCORES OF persons paused from the usual Saturday morning rush to take a glimpse at the lifeless body of Carlton Griffiths, a 28-year-old unemployed man of New Market Oval who was found dead at an unoccupied lot along Great George Street.
The Savanna-la-Mar police who are investigating, theorised that Griffiths, also known as, Squitter and Caple, may have been attacked on Dalling Street before running through an open lot which leads onto Great George Street where he collapsed and died.
Griffiths body was found on Saturday morning with what seemed to be several knife wounds to his head, neck, chest and back.
Griffiths was last seen alive at about 10:30 Friday night heading home from a wake for his aunt who was buried the same day he was found dead.
Family members were shocked when news broke of the slaying of Griffiths. His bigger brother Dermott was more puzzled than traumatised over this killing. "I don't know what is happening. From last year a lot of killing is going on and it is time that the police get more serious because things are getting out of hand because is never so Sav-la-Mar stay."
The police, meantime, are asking persons with information on Griffiths' killing to share what they know.
