Police are on the hunt for a 38-year-old man who drove a car into the path of his mother, killing her on the scene at Lot 8 Saywah Cane Grove, East Coast Demerara on Tuesday.
Dead is 63-year-old Ena Seecharran. Police Headquarters revealed that the car #HD 1726 was parked on the bridge; the gate was locked and Ena was standing in the yard behind the locked gate.
Her husband told the Police that his son started the vehicle and drove forward, crashing through the gate and colliding with Ena, who then fell onto the ground.
The left side of the car ran over her which caused her to receive injuries about her body. The vehicle ended up on a concrete wall in the yard and came to a standstill.
The woman was picked up by her husband and taken to the Mahaicony Public Hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Police are looking for the driver who fled the scene. “It is so far unclear if the act was deliberate on the part of the driver. Investigations continue,” the Police noted.
