Police are investigating a serious three-vehicle accident that occurred around 09:00 hrs today along the Rupert Craig Highway, in the vicinity of the University of Guyana Access Road, East Coast Demerara.
The collision involved hire car Number HD 3223, owned and driven by 63-year-old Neil Lewis of Sisters Village, East Bank Berbice (who had two male passengers at the time); motor car Number PAK 9877, owned and driven by Kamel Daniels; and motor car #PMM 3778, driven by Narayan Sikandar.

All three vehicles sustained extensive damage.
The drivers of the three vehicles and the two occupants of the hire car suffered various injuries. Public-spirited citizens rushed to the scene and transported the injured to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).
