Children aged 1 & 4 among six injured in Yarrowkabra accident
Two children, aged one and two, are among six persons who were injured in an accident on the Yarrowkabra Public Road, Soesdyke-Linden Highway, on Tuesday.
In a statement, the Guyana Police Force (GPF) said that the accident involved motor car PAB 2411, which was driven by 33-year-old Paul Archer of Half Mile Wismar, Linden.
Apart from Archer, Nitchell Warde,1, Amaica Liddell, 4, Ayanna Liddell, 19, David Warde, 24, and Mitchell Petters, 36, were all occupants of the motor car.
According to the GPF, the motor car was proceeding north along the Yarrowkabra Public Road at an allegedly fast speed rate when Archer lost control of the vehicle.
The car turned turtle several times before coming to a halt on the grass parapet. As a result, Archer and the five other occupants received injuries and were taken out of the vehicle in a conscious condition by public-spirited citizens and rushed to the Diamond Diagnostic Centre, where they were seen and examined by doctors on duty.
Archer, David, and Nitchell were treated and sent away, while Mitchell, Amaica, and Ayanna were taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital for further medical attention.
