A Ch­agua­nas DJ died and three oth­ers suf­fered in­juries when the car they were trav­el­ling in crashed in­to a util­i­ty pole on Sun­day morn­ing.

In­ves­ti­ga­tors be­lieve the dri­ver of the car, which crashed near the Cou­va in­ter­change, fell asleep, lead­ing to Ker­nell Alexan­der, 26 of Chase Vil­lage suf­fer­ing fa­tal in­juries.

A po­lice re­port stat­ed that around 4 am, four peo­ple were in a Nis­san Sun­ny B15 trav­el­ling South on the Solomon Ho­choy High­way. One of the pas­sen­gers re­called that as the dri­ver nod­ded, the car veered off the road and head­ed to­wards the util­i­ty pole. The pas­sen­ger tried to con­trol the steer­ing wheel but the ve­hi­cle still struck the pole and crashed on the shoul­der. 

When po­lice and am­bu­lance ar­rived on the scene, they found Alexan­der al­ready dead. The dri­ver and oth­er pas­sen­gers, in­clud­ing an­oth­er DJ, Se­lec­ta Leary, were tak­en to the San Fer­nan­do Gen­er­al Hos­pi­tal. In­ves­ti­ga­tors said that the DJs had played at a ra­dio sta­tion in Port-of-Spain ear­li­er that night and were on their way to vis­it a friend in Cou­va when the crash oc­curred.

During my consultation with Ms Brafit CEO Nicole Joseph-Chin, what was supposed to be a simple mastectomy bra fitting became something much deeper. Her thoughtful questions unlocked emotions I didn’t even realise I was holding in. She comforted, reassured, and helped me face the truth of what was coming. That bra wasn’t just clothing—it was the first real symbol of life after surgery.
