A 30-year-old secondary school teacher, Tineka Hicks of Great Diamond, East Bank Demerara, dies following a crash on Tuesday morning on the Diamond New Interlink Road. Multiple outlets report that a minibus identified as BAH 4679 overturns and plunges into a roadside trench/drain after the driver loses control while overtaking. The crash occurs at about 08:30 hrs. Reports say the minibus is carrying seven occupants, including Hicks, and that other passengers—described as including students—are injured. Guyana Police are investigating the accident. Details across the reports note the same vehicle and location and identify Hicks as the fatality, while differing descriptions focus on how the vehicle tips and where it comes to rest partially in a trench or drain. No cause beyond the loss of control during overtaking is cited in the available accounts, and authorities continue to examine the circumstances of the crash.
