Melanie woman struck down on Water St

A woman was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital last evening where she was eventually admitted after she was struck down by a motor vehicle in the vicinity of Muneshwers on Water Street.

31-year-old Nerissa Issa of 169 Melanie, East Coast Demerara was writhing as she cried out for pains in her back and hip regions, while waiting to be treated in the hospital’s Triage area.

The pain was so intense that tears flowed from her face as she struggled to explain to her relatives the details of the accident which is said to have occurred around 19:00 hrs.

When Stabroek News visited the hospital the woman’s family still did not have the full details of the accident,
