Police are investigating a fatal incident which occurred on Sunday, September 28th, 2025, at about 15:55 hours on the Number 69 Village Public Road, Corentyne, Berbice.
The incident involved a motorcycle, CN 7562, driven by Eric Kissoon, a 23-year-old (now deceased) of Number 72 Village, Corentyne, Berbice, with two pillion riders: a 13-year-old male student and a 28-year-old male, both of whom are currently receiving medical attention.
Initial investigations revealed that the motorcycle was proceeding south along the eastern drive lane on the Number 68 Village Public Road at an allegedly fast rate.
The motorcyclist was unlicensed, and neither he nor the pillion riders was wearing safety helmets. The motorcyclist lost control while negotiating a right bend and collided with a bridge rail located on the eastern side of the road. This resulted in the motorcyclist and pillion riders receiving injuries.
They were all picked up and conveyed to the #75 Regional Hospital, where they were seen and examined.
Kissoon succumbed to his injuries while receiving medical attention. His body is presently lying at the hospital’s mortuary, awaiting a post-mortem examination.
The pillion riders are hospitalised and their conditions are regarded as serious.
