A teen boy lost his life in a road traffic accident last night.

The body of 19-year-old Kavish Persad, an Aranguez student, who recently passed his Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Exams (CAPE) was pulled from the wreckage crash near the Beetham watermain by passersby, after his vehicle collided with the watermain, became airborne and landed in a nearby waterway. 

He ran into difficulty attempting to overtake another vehicle, police said.
