A 21-year-old Grand Bahama man became the country’s latest murder victim after being fatally stabbed during a fight on the island over the weekend.

Relatives said the victim, Kennedy Webb, recently appeared in a viral video of a grocery store where his mother shielded him as other men threatened and insulted him.

In the footage, a man said: “Y’all got Vassy in the store hiding, bey. This y’all lil bredrin, bey. Look how he got his mummy, bey. He got his mummy scared, and he’s a whole pu—y, bey. You know I don’t play, Vassy.” 

Webb’s mother said in the clip: “He ain’t gonna get in trouble for y’all.”

It is unclear when the video was recorded, as police officials were unaware of it. However, a relative confirmed Webb and his mother’s presence in the footage.

Police said when they responded to a disturbance at a business on Polaris Drive in Caravel Beach shortly after 2am on Sunday, they found a group of males engaged in a physical altercation, which they managed to de-escalate, leading the crowd to disperse.

Soon after, police were notified that two men had been admitted to the hospital with multiple stab wounds. A third man was later brought in with stab wounds to his lower body and back. He was pronounced dead upon arrival, with no vital signs detected.

Police said they are questioning four men in connection to the stabbing, which brought the country’s murder count to 95 for the year, according to The Tribune’s records.
