Summary
A nurse working with children with disabilities was brutally attacked on public transport in Barbados, struck in the head with a glass bottle by a taxi conductor who allegedly made derogatory remarks beforehand. The assault left her with a severe brain injury, facial paralysis, and ongoing medical needs — jeopardizing her nursing career. Despite reporting the attack, witnesses vanished and police are still investigating. The conductor later issued a chilling warning to her. Advocates are demanding urgent action: better protections on public transit, mandatory sensitivity training, and societal change to ensure people with disabilities can travel safely without fear of violence or discrimination.
