At the time, the pedal cyclist was riding across the public road from east to west. After hitting the pedal cyclist, the bus then collided with a lorry which was stationary, facing north on the western side of the road.  The lorry was driven by a 28-year-old man, who hails from Canal #2 West Bank Demerara.

“As a result of the collision, the pedal cyclist was flung on to the road’s surface where he received injuries and was subsequently picked up in an unconscious condition by public spirited citizen and taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital, where he was seen and examined by a doctor and was admitted a patient at the said institution, suffering from a fractured right hand and skull and later died while receiving treatment,” the police said.
