By BBN Staff: There was a road traffic accident in Ladyville last night that claimed the life of 30-year-old Elias Nahum Vellos.

Vellos was riding his bicycle on the Philip Goldson Highway shortly before 9:00 p.m. when he was hit by a car being driven at the time by 25-year-old Delawn Julian Abraham. Vellos received massive head and body injuries and died on the scene.

Abraham told police that he was driving to Sandhill when the vehicle in front of him swerved suddenly. In trying to avoid that vehicle he swerved out of the way which caused him to hit Vellos.

Police have taken blood samples to determine Abraham’s alcohol level and served him with a notice of intended prosecution.
