Constable Roger Clinton Bowen of the Guyana Police Force (GPF) has died four days after he had been involved in an accident at Enmore, East Coast Demerara (ECD).
Guyana Times has been informed that Constable Bowen died at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPHC) on Wednesday at about 06:30h.
While the GPF has not issued a statement on the incident, this publication has been informed that last Friday, Bowen, who had been stationed at the Cove and John Police Station, ECD, was heading home on his motorcycle when he became involved in an accident with a motorcar on the Enmore Public Road, and was consequently admitted as a patient in the High Dependency Unit of the Georgetown Public Hospital.
His body has since been transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital Mortuary to await a postmortem examination.
Earlier this year, Police Sergeant Kwame Kellman died in an accident that occurred on the Lusignan Public Road, ECD. Police reports at the time had stated that the 34-year-old sergeant was driving motorcar PYY 3730 east on the northern drive lane of the northern carriageway of the East Coast Demerara Highway when he lost control of the vehicle and it ran into a shop on the northern parapet of the Lusignan Public Road.
Kellman had sustained injuries to his body, and was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital, where he eventually succumbed to his injuries. (G9)
