A race on the East Bank of Demerara (EBD) last night killed two persons and left several others injured after a minibus turned over and careened for several yards near the Demerara Distillers Limited Head Office and brewery at Diamond.
Dead are 19-year-old Shonica Alyah Edwards and Anthony Persaud, 18, of Lot 108 Land of Canaan, EBD.
The driver of the bus, according to eyewitnesses, fled the scene.
