MASKED men broke into the home of a young school teacher and shot her in the back when she tried to save herself. <\/p>\n
And despite her blood and her tears, she was abducted, taken to an abandoned house and raped, sodomised and beaten.
\n
\nThe 23-year-old woman was listed in a serious condition at hospital last night. She was left for dead but survived and stumbled through the bush until she made it to a house. <\/p>\n
In the hospital with her is her boyfriend, who was shot in the right leg during the attack, which occurred around 3 a.m. yesterday, while the couple slept at her apartment. <\/p>\n
The atrocity occurred in a part of Trinidad where the wave of crime sweeping the country is but a smother, and where police officers have been credited, despite a critical manpower shortage, with keeping the crime rate lower than other areas.
