The BCA posted: “URGENT !! KYRON KING, a young promising fast bowler who represented Barbados at the U15, U17 and U19 level, is in need of blood donations. You can go to the blood bank, Jemmott’s Lane and donate under his name. Thank you in advance!! Your help is appreciated!”

This message was repeated and shared on multiple platforms and in WhatsApp message in various groups around the island.
