They ran back to rescue him and the attackers were forced to end their attack on the mechanic in order to escape. Greeve’s friends rushed him to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation where he was admitted and treated for his wounds.

Doctors have reported that he is in a stable condition. An investigation is ongoing, according to police.
