Police in Guyana investigate the deaths of two men whose pickup truck is discovered overturned and submerged in a concrete drain along the Ogle-to-Eccles bypass/Highway area on Sunday morning. Kaieteur News and INews Guyana report that the vehicle is pulled from the drain near the Eccles-to-Ogle bypass route on the East Bank Demerara side. Both outlets say the men are found dead inside the pick-up. The victims are identified as 38-year-old Brian Sookram of Lot 3 Crown Dam, Industry, East Coast Demerara. INews Guyana also identifies a second man, while Kaieteur News notes the victims have been identified, though its excerpt lists only Sookram. Both reports attribute the incident to an ongoing police investigation into the circumstances surrounding how the vehicle entered the drain and the events leading to the deaths. No cause of death or specific contributing factors are stated in the provided accounts, and police have not publicly concluded whether the crash resulted from mechanical failure, driver error, or other conditions.
