Arrest made in 'attempted assassination' of SVG PM Ralph E. Gonsalves
On Thursday, August 5, 2021, during a protest concerning amendments to the island’s Public Health Act, which would make the COVID-19 vaccine mandatory for frontline workers, Dr Gonsalves was struck with a stone just above his temple allegedly by an opposition protester, as he made his way back to parliament.
He was taken to the island’s main hospital and then flown to Barbados for an MRI or head scan later on Thursday night.
Woman arrested
According to News784, who described the incident as an attempted assassination, as the parliament continued debate, Government Senator Julian Francis said a woman was arrested on Thursday night.
“I want to say a woman has been arrested; there may be more. She wanted to apologise to the Prime Minister. I said no, she is not going in front of my political leader to do what; because you got locked up, you want to apologise,” Francis stated.
“Go and apologise to the leader of the Opposition. Let me tell you something, be careful what you do; social media is watching you, sometimes, it’s better than the police”, Francis said.
The investigation into the assault and attempted assassination on the islands Prime Minister continues.

If he was your father, or brother, or very close friend, would some of you that wish him worse, becase he is not, would you have thought and said the same bad things in reference to his injuries? Would you? Would you? Evil hearts, would you?
The women that struck Dr. Gonzales in his skull with a stone first thought it, then picked up the stone, then took her aimed, and like a baseball pitcher, use Dr. Gonzales head as if it was a catcher's mitt.
She is a Jazebel minded woman. She deserve full punishment for her violent action. The only thing that she is now sorry about is that she is in VERY BIG TROUBLE. Good thing that Dr. Gonzales injurie is not too severe. Many thank God, and the medical staff that attended to his injuries, his health is improving
This trurh of old is currently happening worldwide: "Fools rush in where angels fear to trod." (or go in speedily)
We should be very, careful going forward in our political decision making process. Warning!
The police at the same time chased and caught another lady who they accused of throwing a stone, supposedly the stone. But when they learnt they had another lady in custody for the offence they let her go.
