Police are investigating the death of a biker, who was discovered motionless on the East Coast Demerara (ECD) roadway at Montrose early yesterday morning by a relative who was looking for him.
Dead is Jonathan Validen, 43, a national of Canada, who lived at 2738 Pigeon Island, ECD. According to the police, Validen lost control of his bike and fell. However, relatives are not so sure that was what caused his death, after finding a piece of a number plate at the scene of the accident, which they said did not belong to his motorcycle.
According to a police press release, investigations revealed that Validen was riding his motorcycle at a fast rate, when he lost control of the vehicle and fell. He sustained injuries and was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH), where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Validen’s wife, Jennifer Validen, told Stabroek News that she last saw her husband alive,
