Hope said that Jettoo and him left their home on two separate motorcycles; Jettoo was riding a motorcycle bearing registration number CM-9286 while Hope was riding motorcycle CL-5378 to go purchase a wielding plant.

“We buy this weilding plant, and I told her,” Let’s ride slow and come home.” However, she said she got to go to work and she took off from infornt of me and she gone. While on her way home, she stopped to buy a basket for our daughter school project, so I passed her and came home because I didn’t see when she stopped. So after I came home and I didn’t see her I asked them children if mommy come home and they said no, so i end up calling her phone and when I called her phone a man answered and said this girl in a accident,” Hope said.

According to the man, he rushed to the scene. When he arrived at the accident scene, he saw Jettoo lying on the ground motionless.

“When I got to the scene the girl deh lifeless pon de ground at the culvert bruck up, bruck up, all she hand them twist up, she was bleeding through she nose, mouth and all over. It was really bad. An eyewitness that was around there told me that the girl knocked on her down and that the car was on top of my wife and somehow they reversed the car and break up she other hand because the other side was already break from the impact.

However, I started calling her and held on, and I begged people to help me. I started to call out to God and begging for help, and no one helped me. They were just vidoeing and watching. I kept hollering until the police came, and when we checked her, she still had a pulse. After I told the police that we picked her up and put her in the back of the van, and we took her to the Cottage Hospital,” Hope further revealed.

The woman was subsequently transferred to the GPHC, where she is currently admitted as a patient with two broken arms and other injuries about her body.
