An 18-year-old motorcyclist, who was unlicensed, lost his life on Sunday night in Den Amstel along the Public Road when he crashed into a motor car.

The teenage accident victim has been identified as Finidy Miggins of Den Amstel, West Coast Demerara.

Miggins passed away at the Hospital while receiving medical attention for multiple injuries.

The Police said he appeared to have been riding at a fast rate at the time of the accident. The matter remains under investigation.
