“Those individuals are asked to come forward and provide information about the accident. The family members of Young are hoping for an accurate account of the events which led to his demise,” it added.

If you know something, please come forward, even if you just send an anonymous note to the police, so that this young man’s loved ones can have some closure.
I don’t care what anyone say some island person ran him off the road. Them need deporting out of here
Which island the person from? VG, Tola, Anegada, JVD?
VG is an island in the BVI, which is a group of islands and islets.
@justice, you sound like a real jacka**
People of the Caribbean, don’t be fooled. That comment you read everyday about “island people vs Belonger” is a deliberate attempt by either a white hate filled UK or US national to stir and create strife and hatred between the two people.
Don’t fall for the bait. We have been divided enough already.
Don’t you think it is high time you try something new rather than ignorance? 2021 is fast approaching, be careful the universe does not deport your behind from the face of the earth because just like us all, you are living on borrowed time. I would like to give you some choice words but I have to keep it clean for the media.
What do you think this country is, a State? This is also an island that can drop and sink in 99% of the other Caribbean islands with not even a glimpse of its existence.
Yet everyone moving from their big Islands and running to these tiny islands.
We small but we large.
Check yourself.

One person, maybe two, are making a mockery out of all you people EVERY day and every story. They go online news sites and see how they can derail the conversation by commenting about deporting island people. Then they laugh at you bozos. Do not comment. Do not like. IGNORE it!! The TOPIC is what cause the young man’s death. Please people. Help the family with information. Help the Police.
If you know, see or heard anything please come forward and speak up even if you do so anonymously.
Billy old Billy
Billy old billy, billy old billy
Man with the words of wisdom
They found his long black coat
On the banks of the river
‘Cause he never came back
In it’s pocket they found notes
He’d written some time ago
About his so called friends
It read
Love all your friends
But never trust any one of them
Which got me thinking about
My very own friends
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the deadliest of them all
I ask you now-tears in my eyes
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the deadliest of them all
I ask you now-tears in my eyes
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the deadliest of them all
I ask you now-tears in my eyes
Billy old Billy
Billy old Billy, Billy old Billy
Man with the words of wisdom
See them coming
Hear them talk
Never believe a word they say
He told me…
RIP Lucky Dube.
