A family is now mourning the loss of a one-year-old boy following an accident at West Coast Berbice (WCB). Dead is Karson Daniel Mayers of Mahaica.
At the time of the accident, the infant was with his parents, Monique and Keshawn Mayers, along with his elder brother Kristan and a godfather in their car heading back home. The family was returning from paying car instalments in Berbice.
According to the child’s grandmother, Wendy Richmond, the accident occurred at a turn in Britannia, WCB. Richmond told Stabroek News that, based on what she heard, a truck overtook the family’s car on the turn, resulting in the car being dragged by the right side for some distance by the truck.
