Schoolgirl battles for life

A third form Anna Regina Multilateral Secondary School student is battling for her life. She remains in a critical condition at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation, after she was involved in a motorcycle accident on the Cotton Field Old Road.
The child, who resides at Lima, Essequibo Coast, has sustained a broken hip and serious damages to her intestine.
Her mother, Zoreena Ally, said that her daughter is also in need of eight units of blood, after doctors at GPHC had operated on her Tuesday night.
According to reports, the third form student, a pillion rider, was being transported from her School at Cotton Field, on her mother’s motorcycle on Monday afternoon around 15:00 hours.
The report added that Ally apparently attempted to overtake a truck that was heading in her direction when another motorcycle, which was coming behind, collided with Ally’s motorcycle. Her daughter was thrown off of the motorcycle and fell beneath the truck.
The child was subsequently transported to the Suddie Public Hospital but had to be referred to the Georgetown Public Hospital due to the severity of her injuries
Ally, who has since accepted blame for her daughter’s accident, said that she escaped unhurt. The injured child is Ally’s only child.
Meanwhile, four cars sustained extensive damage Tuesday night. Reports are that two cars were said to be racing on the Anna Regina Public Road when they crashed into two stationary cars at the Anna Regina Car park.
The drivers have since been charged for speeding and driving under the influence. They have each been released on $65.000 bail.
