Boy, 7, killed on Essequibo Public Road
Police have detained Deodat, the driver of HC 1292 after he hit and killed a seven-year-old Amerindian Good Hope boy on the Good-Hope Public Road yesterday.
Dead: Andre Daniels, 7
Dead is Andre Daniels, of Supenaam Creek. Police reports suggest that Daniels allegedly ran across the Good-Hope road.
Anita Lucas, the child’s mother, said her son was going to collect his lunch from his cousin, before heading off to the Good-Hope Primary School where he was a student.
Lucas insisted that her children never left the yard unaccompanied.
Deodat told police that he was proceeding East on the Good-Hope Public Road when he saw Daniels run out from a street and across the road into the path of his car.
The child was picked up in an unconscious state and taken to the Suddie Public Hospital. He remained in the Intensive Care Unit section of the Hospital until his death.
Daniels is the third child for his parents Anita Lucas and Neron Daniels. His death came a month after three persons were killed on the Essequibo Public road.
