Kaieteur News – Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of Nathaniel Nelson, a 14-year-old boy who reportedly drowned at Orealla, Corentyne River, Region Six on Sunday.

Nelson was a student of Line Path Secondary School and according to police he drowned around 07:30hrs. Initial investigations revealed that Nathaniel Nelson, who is from Crabwood Creek, Corentyne, Berbice, was with a group visiting Orealla when he, along with others, handed over their cellular phones to a relative and left in an unknown direction.
