Police are investigating a fatal incident which occurred on Monday, 8 April 2024, at Molinere Land Slippage Site, St George, resulting in the death of Richard Fisher, 54 years old of River Road, St George.
Preliminary investigations revealed that 2 trucks (a concrete and a pump) were operating when the pump truck tilted over to the side colliding with the concrete truck, pinning the driver inside. The driver was subsequently removed from the vehicle and was pronounced dead at the scene by a medical doctor.
An autopsy is scheduled to determine the actual cause of death. Investigation continues in this matter.
The Commissioner and members of the Royal Grenada Police Force (RGPF) extend condolences to the family and friends of Mr Fisher.

I’m just guessing here but I suspect that the cause of death will be found to be something along the lines of traumatic crushing injuries!!
Are there presently any regulations in Grenada regarding workplace safety and fall prevention?
