A post Mortem examination conducted on the body of thirty nine-year-old Taxi driver Lynsay Grant, whose lifeless body was found on a farm, while his car was found submerged in a canal nearby, concluded that the cause of death was as a result of multiple injuries, including a punctured lung, a damaged heart and internal bleeding.

At approximately 13:50 hrs, on Monday, a farmer who was attending to his garden on the western side of Adventure Road, East Berbice Corentyne discovered the motionless body of Grant lying face down among his Boulanger plants. The Farmer, Freeman Davis raised an alarm and the body was subsequently identified as the taxi driver by his wife Natasha Ramborose who lives a short distance away.

Speaking with the Guyana Chronicle, Ramborose recalled someone who knew she was searching for her husband came by her home and related a body was found a short distance away. She stated she immediately left home and went only to have her worse fears confirmed. “When the car reached I see people surrounding the area and just as I meet where I could see, he look like he was sleeping and people did crying so I realise he was dead…. I don’t remember what happened next but they said I get black out.”

Ramborose said the next thing she recalled was seeing the mangled Black Toyota Sienta bearing regristration number HC 3695 being pulled from the canal next to where his body was found. Grant left his home on Sunday to ply the Adventure to Black Bush Polder route, and when he failed to return home on Sunday, his family began a frantic search which continued into Monday, after which a report was made to the Police.

According to the police, the incident occurred between 10:00 hrs on Sunday and 13:50 hrs on Monday. The taxi driver reportedly careened off the road as he made his way home less than a mile away. The vehicle appeared to have toppled several times before crashing into the canal. His body was flung out of the car before it landed in the canal.
