Parmanand Ramroop, 21, formerly of Danielstown Village, on the Essequibo Coast, died instantly Sunday morning, after he attempted to re-attach a dislocated (burst) wire, at a location in Richmond Village early that morning.
He fell some 40 feet and broke his neck.
A unit technician at the Guyana Power and Light, Essequibo Branch, Ramroop was called out for emergency duty at Richmond Village to reconnect the wire from an electric pole.
According to reports, Ramroop was venturing down from the electric pole after completing the task when he attempted to release the safety belt around his waist. He apparently slipped from the ladder and broke his neck in the fall.
Public spirited persons in the Richmond area attempted to resuscitate him by throwing water on him.
Ramroop worked at the electricity company for the last four years.
His body is at the Suddie funeral parlour awaiting a Post Mortem examination.
