Female crew member murdered in engine room

Paige Bell, 20, a stewardess from Durban, working aboard the 'Far From It' was found dead in the engine room of the ship in the Bahamas on July 3, 2025. The police was alerted to an incident at the marina just after 1 p. and boarded the yacht, where they were told that the young woman had not been seen for a short period of time. They found Paige unresponsive with visible injuries, before a doctor attended the scene and confirmed she had died. She was found near a 36 year old man, identified as the suspect in her killing, who had severe injuries to his arm in what police described as a suspected suicide attempt. The man was apprehended, cautioned and taken to a nearby clinic for treatment, before he was later charged with murder. The man was due to appear in court on July 10. The circumstances surrounding Paige's death were still under investigation.
