TWO young motorcyclists lost their lives in a tragic head-on collision that occurred on Friday night at Williamsburg Public Road, Corentyne, Berbice.
Police have identified the deceased as 21-year-old Vekash Tulsi of Lot 90 South First Street Letter Kenny, Corentyne, Berbice and Rondy Emmanuel, 22, a labourer, of Lot 167 Williamsburg, Corentyne, Berbice.

Investigations revealed that Tulsi was riding his motorcycle, CM 2969 while Rondy was riding motorcycle CM 50, which is owned by Mark Emmanuel. Tulsi was proceeding west while Rondy was proceeding east, both allegedly at a fast rate of speed.
Rondy lost control of the motorcycle and ended up south into the path of the other motorcycle, resulting in a head-on collision. As a result, both motorcyclists and the pillion rider, Veeram Seecharran, who was on Rondy’s motorcycle, fell onto the roadway.

All of them received injuries on their bodies and were picked up in an unconscious state and rushed to the Port Mourant Public Hospital where Tulsi was pronounced dead on arrival.
Rondy succumbed to his injuries while receiving treatment.
Seecharran was treated for a fractured skull and transferred to New Amsterdam Public Hospital, where he was further examined and admitted as a patient. His condition is regarded as critical.
Investigations are continuing.
