MULLICA TOWNSHIP — One man was airlifted to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, City Campus, in Atlantic City with stab wounds after a fight between two migrant workers at a blueberry farm here Sunday afternoon, police said.
His injuries were apparently not
life-threatening, because he checked himself out of the hospital before
police could arrive that day to interview him, said Police Chief John
Thompson.
The fight happened at a migrant labor camp at Moss Mill Farms, in the 4600 block of Moss Mill Road, said Thompson.
Police got the call at about 3 p.m., he said.
Both parties in the fight had
lacerations, but Pedro Hernandez, 24, had multiple stab wounds on his
chest and face, Thompson said.
By the time police arrived, the suspect Jose Mendez, no age known, had already left, police said.
“The farms are not required to take photographs,” Thompson said, so police don’t even have a photo to use.
Anyone with information is asked to call police at 609-561-7600 ext 123.
