Region Three Detectives are probing a fatal accident that occurred yesterday on the Wales Public Road, West Bank Demerara (WBD). Dead is 23-year-old Romano Ramdeen, a resident of Patentia, W.B.D.
The incident occurred at about 23:00hrs on Thursday night and involved motorcycle CK 1359, driven at the time by Ramdeen, and a container situated on the western side of the road.
