But the feel-good vibes from that inspiring story of survival for a corporal and a mother of two, is dampened by news last night that a young police officer was killed in a traffic mishap.

It happened around 7:00 pm between miles 35 and 36 on the Southern Highway. 21 year old police officer Kevin Ack was travelling from San Juan towards Independence Village when lost control of his 125 CC motorcycle and was flung to the pavement where he died on the spot.

The young officer from Santa Teresa village was assigned to the Intermediate Southern Formation.
