Sixth Road Fatality for 2013

First responders attended a report of a road traffic collision that took place between a truck and an auxiliary cycle around 5:35pm in the area of St David's Road and Bay Estates Road in St. George's.

It appears that a 17 year old St. George's male was traveling on that said road when the rider of the bike apparently attempted to overtake a bus and collided with a truck traveling in the opposite direction. The young man was taken to the hospital where he was later pronounced dead. The name of the victim is being withheld until the next of kin has been notified.

Police are appealing for anyone who may have seen the collision to contact police on 295-0011.


All incidents are under investigation. Police are appealing to members of the public who have witnessed these incidents or may have information pertaining to them to contact their respective Police Station, Police Headquarters at 295-0011 or the confidential Crimestoppers Hotline on 1 (800) 623-8477.
