DEAD: Benjamin Edmund
A 31-year-old motorcyclist succumbed to his injuries on Friday evening after a collision in Pierrot, Vieux Fort.
Reports are that Benjamin Edmund was travelling on his motorcycle, when it collided with a minibus at around 5 p.m. and crashed into a tree.
Emergency officials said that Edmund sustained multiple injuries to his arms and legs. But his head had the most serious injuries.
Edmund was transported to the St. Jude Hospital via ambulance, where he was later pronounced dead.
Just two weeks ago, a 26-year-old motorcyclist lost his life in an accident at Rodney Bay, Gros-Islet.
Police said Kendal Thaddeus Jules was travelling in a southern direction when his motorcycle ran-off the pitch surface of the Rodney Bay/Gros-Islet Highway.
As a result, the motorcycle went into a nearby drain and collided with a small foot bridge.
