An eight-year-old lad was Friday afternoon killed on the Corentyne public road by a drunken driver, the police say. A release from police spokesman Ivelaw Whittaker on Saturday stated that Yoerindra Radbay of No.56 Village, Corentyne was struck down around 3.40 PM on the No. 56 Village Public Road. “Investigations revealed that the driver of motor car PPP 6164 was proceeding along the roadway, allegedly at a fast rate, when he lost control of the vehicle and struck down the child who was walking along the roadway. Yoerindra Radbay was taken to the Skeldon Hospital where he was pronounced DOA,” Whittaker said. He added that the driver of the car fled the scene but was arrested at his home shortly after and was found to be over the legal limit in terms of the consumption of alcohol. He is in police custody assisting with the investigations.

If the driver fled the scene how did they know they have the right person no eye withness
was found to be over the legal limit of Alcohol. DID they do a breath analyzer test or blood alcohol level at his home.

JAGUAR SOUNDZ LIKE IS FAMILY TO THE KILLER. HE WAAN GET JAIL TOO OR WAH?!?!?
GUYANA IS A SICK SICK PLACE TO LIVE...AND RAISE CHILDREN
I will make bench out out of plastic. I will have people cleaning up the street because I will pay them for every plastic bottle return.
I will compose all waste from home and produce the beck vegetable gardens around town using school children, nobody will go hungry in Guyana. I will run the fast food business out of town.
It is predicted that in six years, Guyana will be an overweight society.
I am seeing it and it can very well be true in 2018.....
