Former City Engineer for the Municipality of Georgetown, Gregory Erskine, lost his life as a result of a road accident on Saturday, November 19, 2022, on the Perseverance Public Road, West Coast Berbice.
Reports suggest that Erskine and three others were traveling in a truck when it collided with a utility pole before crashing into a nearby fence where it came to a stop.
The driver of the truck was attempting to avoid hitting a car which ended up in the path of the truck. The car was driven by a 22-year-old woman who it is alleged lost control of the vehicle, crashing into a median and ending up in the path of the truck with Erskine.
Erskine was 42 years old.
