Jamaican police have arrested a Canadian man after his wife's throat was slashed during a pre-Christmas getaway to the island. The Ontario teacher, 43 year old Paul Martin, is accused of slashing his wife's throat and leaving her for dead on a dirt road near a popular Jamaican resort. He has been denied bail.

Paul Martin was charged with attempted murder and went to court on Tuesday for a preliminary hearing. The hearing was held in Falmouth, a coastal community near the resort of Montego Bay.

Police said an argument ensued between the couple, and that they believe he
intended to kill his wife, then blame the attack on Jamaicans.
