One of two teenagers who robbed a PH driver of his vehicle using a fake gun then crashed into a light pole during a high speed chase with police on Saturday has died.
Kemroy Alexander, 18, sucumbed to his injuries around 5 pm on Saturday at the San Fernando General Hospital. A 17-year-old suspect, of La Brea, remains warded in a serious condition.
According to a police report, at around 3 pm the teens got into a Nissan Almera plying the “round-d-town” route in San Fernando. Upon reaching Cipero Street, the teens pointed the fake gun at the 50-year-old driver and ordered him out of the vehicle. The police spotted the car along the northbound lane of the Solomon Hochoy Highway and gave chase which ended when the car crashed into a lightpole and flipped several trimes near the Indian Trail Flyover.
The teens were taken to hospital for treatment and the police found the fake firearm in the car’s glove compartment.
PC Ali of the San Fernando Police Station is investigating.
