The wrecked motorcar.
Kaieteur News – A speeding Guyana Defence Force (GDF) rank yesterday succumbed while receiving treatment for the injuries, which he sustained from an accident on the Hauraruni, Public Road Soesdyke / Linden Highway.
Dead, Wilmot Ward.
Dead is 26-year-old Wilmot Ward of Lot 1608 Central Amelia’s Ward, Linden. According to the police, Ward was heading home in his black and silver motorcar PLL 6077, when he lost control of the vehicle as a result of the rate of speed that he was driving at.
Around 07:10hrs, Ward was proceeding north along the western side of Hauraruni Public Road when he lost control of the motorcar and ended up on the western parapet, where he fell onto the driveway of Scotty Creek, and received injuries to his body.
