Relatives of 23-year-old Doodnauth Persaud of La Bonne Intention (LBI), East Coast Demerara (ECD) were yesterday praying for his recovery following an accident on the LBI Public Road on Sunday night.
Reports are that around 9 pm on Sunday, Persaud, of Lot 21, Cherry Field, LBI was on his motorcycle heading east along the LBI road when he collided with a private motor car allegedly driven by a policeman.
Reports are that the driver of the car was attempting to turn into a gas station in the area when he drove into the path of the motorcycle. Persaud was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital and was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the hospital.
He was last evening nursing severe head injuries and is said to be hooked up to a life support machine.
Several relatives gathered outside the ICU of the GPH yesterday afternoon as many offered words of comfort to his parents and siblings.
The driver of the car is said to be in custody as police continue to investigate the incident.
