A teenage girl from overseas died after a deadly knife attack at her family home in Blue Mahoe, Prospect on Wednesday morning. Teyanna Sutherland was just 14 years old and visiting Jamaica with relatives when tragedy struck. Police say a disturbed man broke into the house through an open metal grill and went after the young victim. The girl fought back hard and managed to hurt her attacker before calling her police officer father for help. Her dad rushed home and found his daughter bleeding badly in the kitchen from multiple stab wounds.
Doctors at the hospital could not save the teenager despite emergency treatment. Neighbors spotted a blood-covered man running away from the scene after the brutal attack happened. Officers searched a nearby concrete building and found a trail of blood leading inside the structure. A naked man armed with a large blade jumped out and attacked the police team. The cops shot and killed the suspect during the dangerous encounter.
Police found the dead girl's phone and jewelry inside the building where they cornered the killer. Nobody has identified the attacker yet and investigators continue working the case. The shooting has been reported to oversight groups that monitor police actions. Officials confirmed the incident but said more details will come out as the investigation moves forward. The young victim was staying with her father and other family members when the attack occurred.
