(CMR) The Jamaica Constabulary Force is carrying out investigations after a 91-year-old woman was raped by an intruder in her home in Westmoreland over the weekend.
“Mi frighten till mi almost dead,” the senior recalled her ordeal to a local media house.
The elderly woman was reportedly at home in Hopewell, Darliston, sometime between 10 pm on Saturday and 1 am on Sunday when she was awakened by strange sounds.
A man then entered her bedroom and sexually assaulted her. Following the ordeal, the woman called a neighbor, who contacted the police.
She was transported to the hospital in the company of a relative, where she was medically examined.
The man gained entry to the house by removing louver blades from a rear window, according to local news reports.
A family member who said he was unable to care for the elderly woman told Jamaica Observer this was not the first time the woman was sexually assaulted.
