Police provide details on purported drowning incident

By: Staff Reporter, SKNVibes.com

    BASSETERRE, St. Kitts - THE circumstances surrounding the death of 37-year-old Jerrald Mc Donald of Conaree, who died while at sea on Monday (Aug. 2), is being probed by the police.

     

    In a media statement, police reported that their investigations have so far revealed that Mc Donald went out to sea with a group of males to do tankless spearfishing and to dive for whelks off the island of Redonda.
     
    Sometime after 7:00 a.m., he went diving and did not resurface.  

     

    Reports also indicated that the other individuals had searched for him and he was discovered several meters away from the fishing vessel in an unresponsive state. They then took him ashore and called the authorities.
     
    The police responded, as well as the St. Kitts-Nevis Coast Guard, the St. Kitts and Nevis Customs and Excise Department and the Nevis Air and Seaport Authority. 

     

    However, Mc Donald was pronounced dead by the District Medical Officer.

     

    An autopsy will be performed to determine the exact cause of death.
