Welcome of Ulverston Village, Corentyne, Berbice is said to have joined friends at the poolside, sometime later and is reported to have jumped into the pool telling friends he would show them how long he could hold his breath underwater. But by the time his friends realised something was wrong and pulled him from the pool he was already unconscious. He was rushed to the nearby Mahdia Regional Hospital where he was pronounced dead by the doctor on duty.
