Another Belmopan woman has been stabbed by her common-law husband in the capital. Katherine Anthony remains in a stable condition at the Western Regional Hospital after she was stabbed to the chest following an argument. On Saturday night, the couple was at a house on Sarstoon Street in Belmopan when an argument ensued between them. The common-law husband, whose name has not released at this time, somehow got hold of a knife and stabbed Anthony once. ACP Joseph Myvett says that there is no record of domestic violence between the couple, but police are looking for him.
