The 28-year-old labourer who was severely injured when a liquid petroleum gas (LPG) tank exploded at his home in Penal last week has died.

Bevaughn Joseph, of Sunrees Road, succumbed to his injuries at the San Fernando General Hospital on October 17.

Joseph had been warded in the intensive care unit since October 13, after a 20-pound gas cylinder exploded in the kitchen of his ground-floor apartment home.
