A family of Try Best, Lower Pomeroon was thrown into mourning yesterday after a frantic search for their two and a half year-old son ended with his body being discovered in a nearby trench.
Around noon yesterday Kevin Henry Rose’s body was pull from a trench just in front of his home. The toddler’s father Eusan Rose told this newspaper that he had returned from the back dam when he noticed his son playing by the trench as is customary.
Rose said the child would normally hold onto a piece of wood near the trench and dip himself in the water to play and sometime take baths. He recalled that five minutes after returning home he noticed that the child was not by the trench as he had earlier seen.
The man said he and other family members began to search the area frantically even checking at a neighbour’s home, but to no avail. The man said he then heard his ten-year-old son screaming and when they rushed to him, they saw the missing toddler floating in the trench. The unconscious toddler was taken out and rushed to the Charity Hospital where doctors tried their utmost to revive the child. He was subsequently pronounced dead.
Little Kevin leaves to mourns his mother Lynette, his father, two sisters and a brother.
