Man still missing, woman unidentified

UP TO late yesterday the body of the second drowned victim had not resurfaced and his female companion had not been identified, Besson Street police said. Police said the homeless couple were asleep at Sea Lots and that  they were washed away following heavy showers that caused the East Dry River to overflow its banks Thursday night. The couple’s drowning was reported to the police by another homeless person, who told the police that the duo were asleep at the time. Attempts to save the couple were futile, but the woman’s body surfaced on Friday morning in a mangrove at Sea Lots.  Besson Street police are continuing investigations.
