Dead is Keeble Jones, a 35-year-old construction worker of Dam Head district Spanish Town, St Catherine.

Reports from the police are that about 3:40 a.m., Jones was riding his bicycle along Walks Road in the company of another man when he was hit from the cycle by a motor car.

"He was a very hard-working man who did construction although is a difficult job," Jones cousin, Geovanni Heslop, said.

Heslop said Jones was planning to visit his girlfriend with a sundae after work.

Jones was pronounced dead at the Spanish Town Hospital. Investigators told THE STAR the driver is being sought for questioning. "It is not the first a driver has left the scene of an accident without making a report," a corporal said.

On Sunday, March 20, about 2;15 p.m., the driver of a Toyota Hiace, which killed Kingston resident Garwayne Watson along the Mandela Highway, fled and is still being sought by police.
