Brunet said the body was recovered on Sunday about 36 hours after the man died. Brunet said it appears as though the victim's death was accidental. SMN News has been reliably informed that the victim has been identified as Francis Dominique (46) from the island of Dominica and he was residing on a boat in the lagoon.
In an unrelated incident, the Gendarmes are also busy investigating the head on collision of two motorcycles which took place in Sandy Ground sometime on Wednesday. Brunet also confirmed that two persons were injured in the accident and they are now patients at the Louis Constant Fleming Hospital.
