KINGSTON, Jamaica — Two of the four men injured in an explosion at a garage adjacent to Guardsman Group-Beryllium Limited headquarters, on South Camp Road, have returned to Jamaica following intensive burn treatment overseas.

Fabian Brown was one of two airlifted back to Jamaica on Friday in the company of his wife, Myesha, who spoke to Observer Online.

“The journey, I must say, has been rough. It has been hard,” she said.
