Driving on the road is often full of uncertainties, and today’s story is a sad example of the same. When Garfield Dudley Bridgemohan mounted his bicycle on Friday, little did he have an idea of the gruesome fate that awaited him. As he was cycling across Queenstown Public Road, a motorcar hit him, resulting in his demise.

According to the sources, this heartbreaking incident occurred at around 21:10 hours. Eyewitnesses have reported spotting the allegedly guilty vehicle, a white-colored car speeding towards Bridgemohan, moments before tragedy struck. While the investigations are fully underway, let us dig deeper into the matter and try to find out more details about the tragedy below.

A man was killed in a cycling tragedy

The 36-year-old pedal cyclist resided in the small village of Queenstown, near the Essequibo Coast. Bridgemohan, a logger by profession, was said to be pedaling on his bicycle near Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam) when the car hit his rear wheel. Jolted by the impact, Bridgemohan flew off his bicycle, hitting the front side of the car. As he fell to the road, the person driving the car did not stop the engine.

In the most tragic turn of events, the car sped past the man, running him over before coming to a stop in the distance. This resulted in Bridgemohan getting a broken neck as well as multiple bodily wounds. The medical team arrived at the spot as soon as the tragedy was reported.

Unfortunately, after being rushed to the hospital, Bridgemohan ultimately succumbed to his injuries, passing away in the process. Reports suggest that the driver of the car has been taken into custody, and investigating officers are looking closely at the matter. As Bridgemohan’s body is kept in the Suddie Mortuary for a postmortem, his family is furious and demanding justice.

Calls for justice from Garfield Dudley Bridgemohan’s family

A mourning McGarrell then pleaded for justice as she stated, “We need justice. My brother was in his lane riding home, and the car driver was drunk and speeding and hit him from behind, then drove over his head. We need justice; justice is all we need. My brother was a good person; he never did anyone wrong, and that car man is wrong to have hit my brother and killed”m.” 

With the investigations in full motion, only time will tell the true outcome of the tragedy and who the actual guilty party was. Till then, all we can do is wait and pray for Bridgemohan’s soul to rest in peace.
