Security Officer dies after crashing motorcycle into utility pole

A Security Officer attached to Queensway Security Firm met his demise on Sunday after he reportedly lost control of the motorcycle he was driving and slammed into a utility pole in Houston, Greater Georgetown.
The dead man has been identified as 54-year-old Brian McKenzie of Diamond, East Bank Demerara (EBD).
Based on reports received, McKenzie reportedly left his relatives’ home at Laing Avenue, Georgetown just after 14:00h and was headed home on his motorcycle when the accident occurred.
Family members who turned up at the scene later reported that they were told that McKenzie had lost control of his motorcycle while negotiating a turn at Rahaman’s Park when he veered off the road and collided with a utility post. He was reportedly pronounced dead at the scene by Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs).

One of McKenzie’s relatives told the Guyana Times that moments after the accident, another relative was also travelling along the East Bank Highway and was stuck in traffic due to the accident.
As a result, they stopped to check what had happened and it was then he realised that McKenzie was the victim. He immediately alerted other family members, who rushed to the scene.
The man’s body was later transported to the Memorial Gardens Funeral Home as police continued their investigation into the crash.
