Moraikobai toddler missing, feared drowned

A 2-year-old boy is now missing and is feared to have drowned after going for a swim with siblings on Saturday.
The child has been identified as Kevin Jacobs.
The incident occurred at Moraikobai, located up the Mahaicony Creek, Region Five (Mahaica-Berbice).
Toshao of Moraikobai Derrick John confirmed the incident but could not supply much details.
“He was in the creek swimming with his siblings, and they did not notice when he went under the water and drowned,” the Toshao said.
Meanwhile, reports are that a search for the child up to press time proved futile.
Police from the Mahaicony Police Station have since visited the community to conduct an investigation.
