DELLON Dublin was on Tuesday remanded to prison by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan for causing death by dangerous driving.

It is alleged that on May 6, 2018 at Land of Canaan, East Bank of Demerara (EBD), Dublin drove motor vehicle PRR 6380 in a manner dangerous to the public thus causing the death of Garfield McPherson.

The 28-year-old man who resides at Anna Catherina denied the charge that was read to him in court.

The court was told that on the day of the accident, the defendant was transporting two passengers, Diana McGarrell and McPherson to the city, and in the vicinity of Land of Canaan he reportedly swerved to avoid colliding with another vehicle which was travelling in the opposite direction. Dublin lost control and ended up in a trench.
He and the two occupants were subsequently taken to Diamond Diagnostic Centre where McPherson was pronounced dead on arrival.
Dublin will return to court on May 24, 2018.
