Chief Executive Officer of COPS Security and former army Lieutenant Colonel, Gregory Gaskin, died earlier today after suffering internal injuries when he fell from his motorcycle at the South Dakota Circuit, Timehri.
Gaskin, 54, of Bel Air Gardens, was at the time practising for a race meet which is scheduled for next month.
Reports reaching this newspaper are that the accident occurred sometime around 2:30 pm. The bike was said to have caused a broken rib which subsequently punctured a lung. According to the man’s son, Graeme Gaskin, his father did not appear to be in a very bad state.
He was rushed to the St. Joseph Mercy Hospital where he succumbed shortly after 6 pm.
