When Stabroek News arrived on the scene last night, the mangled parts of the motorcycle CG 4185 were less than two feet away from the Toyota X-trail PSS 9646.  The entire front of the X-Trail was damaged.

Traffic officers were also on the scene conducting investigations. One officer behaved unprofessionally, using expletives after a family member unknowingly touched a piece of evidence on the scene.

This newspaper was told that Singh was heading home from a birthday celebration in Lusignan when the accident occurred.
