Motorcycle accident claims life of 19-year-old 

A tragic accident claimed the life of 19-year-old Tevin Griffith on Tuesday night, as he lost control of his motorcycle while speeding on Nelson Mandela Avenue, near Pineapple Street.

The incident occurred around 8:48 hrs when Griffith, a resident of Lot 3420 Stevedore Housing Scheme, was riding with a group of motorcyclists heading west along the southern drive lane.

Preliminary investigations indicate that Griffith was lying flat on his motorcycle at a high speed, which likely contributed to his loss of control.

Witnesses report that Griffith was thrown onto the roadway upon losing control and sustained multiple injuries. Emergency Medical Technicians arrived shortly after the incident, but despite their efforts, Dr. Kellman pronounced him dead at the scene.

Authorities are continuing their investigation into the circumstances surrounding the accident, including the lack of safety helmets among the group of riders.
