Pomeroon man drowns in Puruni River

Oct 27, 2012 News

Mikey Stewart, 49, of Charity, Pomeroon, died some time on Thursday, at Cuyuni, in the Puruni River, after the boat he was traveling in, capsized.
According to reports, Stewart and a crew were traveling to their mining camp at Kamaico but decided against this and instead, ventured to another spot where they indulged in imbibing alcohol.
Tragedy struck, while the crew was returning to the camp.  Reports are that the boat capsized and Stewart allegedly died by drowning.
After being informed about the incident, Stewart’s employer summoned a diver who retrieved Stewart’s body some time late Thursday.
His remains have since been transported to the Oscar Joseph Hospital where a post mortem is scheduled to be performed shortly.
Stewart was the father of five. Earlier this year, he lost his mother and brother.
