A HARROWING INCIDENT involving Senator Abrahams and a group of men blocking the road in Strathclyde, St Michael has left residents in the community shaken.

Speaking to the MIDNATION, Senator Abrahams said he was travelling home on Saturday night when he saw a line of garbage bags in the road.

He explained that while slowing down to inspect the scene, he turned on his truck’s bright lights, only to see three young men waiting in the dark.

After a brief chase, the young men fled through a narrow road and he made a report to the police.

When he returned to the scene, Senator Abrahams said he found a woman in a vehicle stopped in the road, leaving him concerned as to what could have been.

“When it was all over and done, my thoughts were what if that was my wife instead of me, or what if that lady that stopped there had got to the blockage before me,” Abrahams said.

“She might have been the first victim. It could have come out that something serious could have happened right outside my house. I was lucky to get there before she did,” he added. (AD)
