“On the twenty-third of October, Independence police visited a scene between Placencia and Stann Creek, well in the Stann Creek District where they found a car, silver in color, overturned. Extensively damaged… a little distance from that vehicle, on the shoulder of the road, they saw the body of Swaso, Darnell Suazo, thirty-years-old.  Investigations revealed so far that Swaso was traveling on that highway towards Dangriga Town where he lost control of the vehicle, slammed into a drain and overturned. Unfortunately, he did not survive the accident because he suffered severe head and body injuries.”
