Farmer still critical 23 days after hit and run accident
For the past 23 days, a 47-year-old man has been battling for his life in the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC)’s Intensive Care Unit.
The father of five, John Coxall was struck down by a speeding motor car on the Madewini, Soesdyke/Linden Highway on July 27 last. The driver of the car escaped but was later apprehended by the police and was kept in custody for one day.
Coxall, who belongs to the West Bank Demerara, is currently on a life support machine. He sustained a fractured skull, broken ribs and a fractured foot.
Yesterday, the mother of his child, Sunita told this publication that she was at home when she received the sad news. “We are not living together. I am living in Grove and his brother living far so when he was knocked down, I only know about it three days after.”
According to Sunita, the 47-year-old man was transferred from the High-Dependency-Unit to the Intensive Care Unit twice but medical practitioners have not been telling her what is going on.
“He was in ICU, they moved him to HDU and moved him back yesterday (Saturday) to ICU.”
