Mahdia accident victim Michael Prince, who succumbed to his injuries on Wednesday, died as a result of a broken spine, a post-mortem examination yesterday revealed.
The accident claimed the life of Keith Paul, 40, of Number One Road, Corentyne, Berbice, who died on the spot after he was pitched out of the car he was travelling in when it turned over along the Airstrip Road, at Mahdia.
Prince, 50, of Belmont, Mahaica, East Coast Deme-rara was a patient of the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and was initially thought to have been recovering from his injuries. However, his condition took a turn for the worse on Monday, when he began to experience high fever, his brother Errol Prince stated.
Shawn Simon, 40, of 111 Miles, Mahdia, was also in the car and he sustained internal injuries. Simon is still in a critical condition in the hospital’s High Dependency Unit.
