it never fails that there is some sort of free show or action in bc. We went to the beach on the 28th and were having lunch at Gabbiano. two or three resturants to the west a guy gets stabbed to death. Jealosy deal over a girl. a son of David, the tall strong guy that used to give massages is a tigure and did the killing.

Hey Dave,
While you're at it, is there any truth to the rumours, posted in another thread, about gringos getting scammed in Boca Chica?
PS: Sorry you had to witness such a sight. It's not a pleasant thing to see someone die, specially when murdered.

Unfortunately crimes of passion can happen anywhere. I was sorta relieved to hear that it was a dominican vs dominican....but sheesh! imagine being a tourist on your first visit and witnessing that!!! IT would have freaked me out and i have been traveling there for 7 years!

Myself i have never felt threatened in boca chica....and i have stumbled up the hill to candil and costalunga at 1 or 2 am...and i have never encountered any problems.

With all that...i am sorry for the incident...i know David from a few years ago. Kept trying to get us to get a message...and sure was tempting...strong man with big hands. Always seemed like a nice guy. (relieved to hear that it was his son and not him...if you know what i mean)

I did hear of a stabbing in BC three years ago...but it was at 2am in the morning and the tourist (most likely a chica chaser) went to an unprotected ATM on the darker side of duarte. That was just being stupid!

I just hope people dont get the wrong idea and think that they will be unsafe.

I did not actually witness the stabbing. just saw people gathering in a hurry. he was stabbed 4 or 5 times, people said once in the heart. it was one or two restuarants west of the german place. i think the german place is next to Gabbiano since the guy that used to run madhouse was hanging there. luckily there didnt seem to be too many tourists that day.

Are you sure that he was killed? I spoke with a neighbor of David's son (the attacker) this afternoon and the neighbor told me that the assault didn't result in a fatality.

I was told he was killed, but you sure can't believe everything. I was told several stab wounds and one to the heart.
