The elderly man who was involved in an early morning accident on New Year’s Day which claimed the life of his comrade and caused injuries to a woman, is in a critical condition at the Georgetown Public Hospital.
This was according to a close relative Donna Waldron, who stated that the 62-year-old Brian Devine of East La Penitence is in “bad shape” at the hospital.
She further explained that Devine has so far received 4 pints of blood and is in need of more and is being aided by oxygen equipment.
The man sustained broken legs, broken ribs, a broken hip, a fractured neck, head injuries and a damaged eye
According to reports, Devine and the now dead 61-year-old George Baker along with Anaynasa Thorne, 18, were standing at a stall on the eastern side of the eastern carriageway on Cemetery Road when motor car PNN 7977 ploughed into them.
The police issued a press release saying that their investigations revealed that the driver lost control of the vehicle after he suffered a punctured tyre and is in police custody assisting with investigations.
Efforts to contact Thorne to inquire about her condition were futile.
