Dead is Shemroy Henry. Henry is attached to the High Life Sound System of Belmont Mahaicony. Police in a statement said that at the time of the incident, Henry was driving motor car #PAE 7812. With him were three occupants in the vehicle: two females and a male, ages 17, 20 and 26. Enquiries disclosed that the car was proceeding east along the northern side of the road at a fast rate when the driver lost control of the vehicle and ended up on the southern side, colliding with a concrete fence and then into a GT&T pole.
Due to the collision, all four occupants suffered injuries about their bodies and received treatment at the Mahaicony Cottage Hospital. Henry succumbed to his injuries while undergoing treatment. The other three occupants were admitted for medical observation as investigations continue.
