THE TOUGHEST JOB relatives of little Azanii Bridgeman have ever had is upon them. They have to help the eight-year-old to come to grips with his father’s untimely death.

“Azanii is eight and is struggling to deal with the fact that he saw his dad yesterday [Sunday] and now he is gone.

“We are just trying our hardest to get him to understand and be supportive right now,” the boy’s cousin said yesterday when the DAILY NATION team visited Church Village, St Philip, where Bridgeman lived.

Azanii’s father, 49-year-old detective Clifford Sherlock Bridgeman, a station sergeant with the Royal Barbados Police Force, died after the vehicle in which he was a passenger was involved in an accident on Sunday night. (LK)
