Chief Superintendent Basil Rahming reported over the weekend that two sisters from Abaco were expected to face formal charges within the next several days following their alleged attack on a pastor and a young woman.<\/p>\n
According to police reports, sometime around 8:45pm Tuesday an 18-year-old woman was walking with her mother along Crockett Drive on Abaco when she was confronted by the sisters, ages 17 and 20.<\/p>\n
The older sibling reportedly struck the victim in the back with a large rock then hit her in the head with a beer bottle. <\/p>\n
Mr. Rahming said upon seeing the altercation Rev. Stephen Knowles, 43, pastor of the Strong Tower Tabernacle in Dundas Town, Abaco, intervened and attempted to restrain the 20-year-old attacker. <\/p>\n
Police reports indicate that she violently attacked him and struck him in the face with a large rock. <\/p>\n
Rev. Knowles was taken to the Marsh Harbour clinic where he was treated before being airlifted to the Princess Margaret Hospital. <\/p>\n
Mr. Rahming said two responding police officers were also attacked by the two sisters, who reportedly violently resisted arrest before being subdued and taken into custody. <\/p>\n
