A vehicular accident in Miami, Florida on Saturday led to the death of a Guyanese woman and the hospitalisation of her husband.
The dead woman has been identified as Devina Bissondial, and her injured husband, Sarva Dyal Bissondial. Guyana Times understands that Sarva is a well-known pandit.
According to NBC Miami, the incident occurred on Florida’s Turnpike in SW Miami-Dade, when a white SUV and a grey sedan collided in the southbound lanes near Bird Road. The collision had left both vehicles disabled and partially blocking the left lane.
After the crash, the occupants, including the pandit and his wife, exited their vehicles and stood on the side of the road. Subsequently, an oncoming pickup truck crashed into the grey sedan and struck Sarva and Devina.
Devina died at the scene, while her husband was taken to a nearby hospital in critical condition. An investigation was immediately launched.
