A 54-year-old security guard of Hampshire, Corentyne Coast, is warded at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH), suffering multiple injuries after being struck down by a police patrol motorcycle on the Hampshire public road last Thursday.
Rajendranauth Gopaul said he was crossing the road a short distance away from his home on Thursday afternoon, when the police rank driving his motorcycle failed to stop at a major road and ploughed into him.
He suffered a fractured left leg; injuries to his neck; a blow to his head and jaw; cuts to his forehead and nose, among other things. Gopaul is unable to see out of his left eye. He is also unable to eat solids and is being fed only fluids through a straw or tube.
The injured man said he was picked up by villagers and rushed to the Fort Wellington Hospital before being transferred to the GPH.
