15-year-old seriously injured after being crushed by truck

A 15-year-old lass has been hospitalized at the GPHC with serious injuries after being crushed by a truck at Grove, East Bank Demerara.
The incident occurred at the junction of the Grove Public Road and Kaneville/ Samatta Point main access road as the girl was attempting to cross the road on Wednesday at about 09:20h.
Motor lorry GXX 1162 was at the time being driven by a 42-year-old man, and reports are that the vehicle was proceeding south along the eastern driving lane on the Grove Public Road in a line of vehicular traffic.
As the lorry approached this particular junction at Jimbo Bridge, the driver stopped behind another truck to allow vehicles to proceed west out of the access road; but as the lorry in front drove off, this lorry followed. Coincidentally, the teenager started to cross the road, and as a result, the truck knocked her down and its front wheel crushed her.
Public-spirited citizens rushed the girl to the Diamond Diagnostic Centre, from whence she was referred to the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPHC), where an emergency surgery was performed on her hip.
She is currently a patient at that hospital.
A breathalyzer test was conducted on the driver of the truck, but no trace of alcohol was detected in his system. He has nevertheless been taken into custody, and has since been served with a notice of intended prosecution.
