East Bank Demerara: A man this afternoon became the first fatality at the recently commissioned Haags Bosch dumpsite aback Eccles Industrial site East Bank Demerara.
CaribbeanTrakker could only so far confirm that the man was crushed by a garbage disposal truck at a section of the site operated by BK International.
The area was immediately sealed off by BK security personnel said to be operating on instructions from Senior Government Engineer Walter Willis.
Willis confirmed, when contacted, that he had issued the order to shutdown the dumpsite.
Caribbean Trakker will provide updates as information becomes available.
