Teenager drowns in Toledo

In news of a less upbeat nature, the rushing waters of the Moho River in Toledo has apparently claimed the life of a teenage boy. Seventeen year old Marlon Duncan of Punta Gorda Town was out on a picnic with family members Sunday afternoon. Whilst swimming in the river, Duncan reportedly waded into a deep section and disappeared. His lifeless body was pulled from the river a while later. It now awaits a post mortem examination at the Punta Gorda Town Hospital.
