Police investigators are probing the death of a 13-year-old girl who reportedly jumped to her death from a speed boat in the Upper Berbice river in Region 10.
According to a Police Report, the teenager’s body was recovered on Friday afternoon after she had jumped overboard from a boat earlier in the same day. She has been identified as Tinesha LaRose.
Reports of the incident has sent chills through the Upper Berbice community. The girl attended school in Kwakwani and last week a number of students from the same school were sent home after they all started to behave “strangely”.
One resident in the area said the students seemed possessed by something and a number of them were taken to the hospital where it was determined that they were not suffering from any medical condition.
Students were seen screaming and running around the building claiming that they were being overtaken by “evil spirits”. Community leaders and Pastors were summoned to offer assistance.
The young lady who drowned was one of the many students who exhibited the “strange possessed” behavior according to residents in the community.
