The brother did not stop there but followed up the assault by pulling out a Rambo knife from a haversack and stabbing Archer three more times, once to his left arm and twice to his abdomen.
Archer reportedly fell to the ground and the police were summoned. Ranks responded promptly and arrested the suspects and rushed Archer to the West Demerara Regional Hospital.
According to police, the suspects were injured and they received medical attention together with Archer.
After treating them, doctors discharged them. Archer was taken home and his siblings were transported to the La Parfaite Harmonie Police Station where they remain in police custody.
