Mervin Gibbons is today giving thanks for his spared life after an attack last Wednesday night left him nursing injuries to his head, hands and left shoulder.
Resting comfortably at his mother’s St James home on Saturday, the 45-year-old contractor of Prior Park, St James, said when he received a call from a woman last Wednesday night, he never expected that it would bring him so close to losing his life.
Gibbons explained that the woman, whom he knew, had called him earlier that night and visited his home about 12:30 a.m. She then slipped a male accomplice into the house and they attacked him.
“She came by about 12:30 a.m. When I opened the door, it was only her outside and she asked to use the bathroom, so I let her in and locked the door.
“When she left the bathroom, she went and turned on the radio. I heard when it came on fairly loudly and I believe that it is at that time she let the guy in.”
