Linden man dies in 2-vehicle smash-up at Loo Creek

A head-on collision along the Loo Creek Public Road, Linden/Soesdyke Highway, on Wednesday has claimed the life of 31-year-old Keiran Warner of Central Amelia’s Ward, Linden.

Based on reports received, the accident involved a motor car bearing registration number PZZ 934, driven by Warner, and a motor lorry, GXX 3002, which was at the time being driven by a 50-year-old resident from Half Mile, Wismar, Linden.
Guyana Times understands that Warner, who was heading to Linden at a fast rate, reportedly swerved into the path of the truck, which was travelling in the opposite direction, resulting in a head-on collision.
Due to the impact, Warner was reportedly pinned in the motor car, which ended up under the lorry. He was pulled from the wreckage in an unconscious state and was pronounced dead at the scene by emergency medical technicians (EMTs).
A breathalyser test conducted on the driver of the motor lorry showed that there were no traces of alcohol in his system. He was, nevertheless, taken into custody and is assisting with the investigations.
Following the death of Warner, the management and staff of the Linden Hospital Complex in a social media post extend their most sincere condolences to his family, friends, and loved ones.
“He will be remembered for his dedication and the role he played in supporting the work of healthcare within our community. His presence will truly be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside him,” the post added.
