A man is dead and two others remain in critical condition, after an accident in Cunupia early on Sunday morning.
The crash occurred shortly after 6 a.m. along the Southern Main Road when the driver of a Nissan Note, which was travelling north, reportedly lost control of the vehicle.
The car then slammed into a metal barrier before plunging into a nearby river.
Two other occupants were also in the vehicle at the time of the accident.
All three were taken to the Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex for treatment.
However, the driver later succumbed to his injuries, while the two passengers remain warded in critical condition.
