It has been a tragic Valentine’s Day for several families as three (3) persons lost their lives on the nation’s roadways in two (2) separate accidents on Sunday (14th February 2021). In the first accident, Electrician Kyle Sargeant, 25, was returning to his home at Salandra Drive in Roystonia, Couva, from a private job in Point Fortin when his white AD Wagon came into contact with the rear of a white Mitsubishi Lancer which was heading North on the Solomon Hochoy Highway around 8pm. The Lancer was driven by Anderson Mohammed, 25, while his common-law wife Julia Osouna, 30, of Calcutta No. 1 in Freeport, was in the front passenger seat. The Lancer flipped several times just after the Claxton Bay Overpass, tossing Osouna onto the median of the Highway. She died on impact. Mohammed was injured and taken to Hospital. Sargeant was pinned behind his steering wheel and called out for his mother. He gave an eyewitness his mother’s cell number before he lost consciousness. He died later at the San Fernando General Hospital. His mother, Heather, who turned 50 last Tuesday, said she got news of the accident after attending a thanksgiving for her birthday. The mother of four (4) said when the service at the Emmanuel Spiritual Baptist Church in Carapichaima ended, she got a call from an eyewitness to whom her son had given her cell number. I got the call around 8:30pm and reached after 9pm. By the time I got there, he was still pinned in the car. Before he lost consciousness, they (eyewitnesses) said, he kept asking for his mommy. Upon arriving at the Hospital, the staff allowed Heather to go inside and view her son's body as he was already pronounced dead. Heather, a primary school teacher, said her first-born and only son looked as though he was sleeping. She last saw him alive on Saturday night. He left home at about 6:30am on Sunday while she was still asleep. Sargeant worked at Ramlagan Colour Shop and recently opened his own business – Elite Power Solutions – at home. His mother described him as a blessing, saying he never gave her any problems and was an ambitious person. Sgt Modeste of Central Division is leading investigations into that accident. In the second accident, also on Sunday night, a man identified as Hilson Pierre was killed in Debe. Police said the 41-year-old St. Ann’s man was heading South on the Solomon Hochoy Highway extension at Gandhi Village around 9pm when Police believe he lost control of his white Nissan Tiida, which then crashed into concrete barriers near the roundabout. He died at the scene. Southern Division Police are continuing investigations. [Source: Newsday]
