Security guard dies in ATV accident

Police in Region Seven (Cuyuni-Mazaruni) are investigating a fatal accident that claimed the life of 37-year-old Marlon Davison, after his All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) overturned on the Sand Hill Trail.
The incident occurred around 17:25h on Sunday, when Davison, a resident of Pouderoyen, West Bank Demerara, was driving his ATV east along the northern side of the Sand Hill Trail at a high speed. According to initial enquiries, the guard, who worked with Hopkinson Mining Security Firm, lost control of the vehicle, causing it to flip, pinning him to the road.
Public-spirited persons rushed to Davison’s aid, but he was found unconscious. He was transported to the Bartica Regional Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Investigations into the incident are ongoing.
