Subaru driver implicated in deadly Clarendon crash remanded

By Lorraine Walker   
 
Kerome Wint, the driver of the Subaru motor vehicle involved in last week's deadly crash on Bustamante Highway in Clarendon, was remanded when he appeared in court Wednesday.
 
Wint is charged with causing death by dangerous driving, driving without a road licence, and having no insurance coverage.
 
During his appearance in the Clarendon Parish Court on Wednesday, the court was told that the case file is incomplete, with post-mortem results among the outstanding documents.
 
Wint returns to court on January 8.
 
The 34-year-old resident of Mocho, Clarendon was arrested following the motor vehicle crash which led to the deaths of Jodian Lodge and Richard Tulloh, students of Lennon High.
 
The students were passengers in Wint's vehicle which collided with a Toyota Probox, a registered public passenger vehicle.
 
The police say Wint was operating an illegal taxi.
 
Three other students were injured in the crash.
 
It was reported that Wint was attempting to elude personnel from the Transport Authority and a police team who were in pursuit, when the crash occurred.
 
He was captured hours later at Norman Manley International Airport attempting to flee the island.
