He suffered a broken leg.Eyewitness George Thompson said both he and his friend Adrian Jordan, of Upper Goodland, had just left the Old Trees guest house in Paynes Bay, St James, about 12:25 p.m., when the accident occurred.“I stayed and talked with him right through, and got towels to cover him from the rain.
