A 21-year-old Trinidadian woman who was studying at the Cave Hill Campus of the University of the West Indies died yesterday morning after collapsing as she was preparing to go home for the Christmas break.

Reports indicate that Shenice Davis fell ill at Grantley Adams International Airport and was rushed by ambulance to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital where she later died.

Close friends said that Davis’ 19-year-old brother, who was at Piarco International Airport awaiting his sister’s arrival, had to catch the next plane to Barbados when informed of her death.

It is understood that he arrived here with his pastor yesterday afternoon.

Chelston Lovell, public relations officer at the UWI, confirmed the incident and said that the brother was receiving counselling from senior officials at the Campus.

Posted by Tony Waterman 5 months ago: My Sincerest Condolences to the Entire Family of Shenice Davis. 21 years old seems to be an unusual age for anyone to die so SUDDENLY, and it could be an underlying undiagnosed MEDICAL problem, or for that matter FOUL Play, we really don't know, so my question, and not for the first time is.
IS THERE GOING TO BE AN AUTOPSY PERFORMED IN BARBADOS TO RULE ON HOW AND WHY SHE DIED???and again this is what would AUTOMATICALLY transpire in WORLD CLASS JURISDICTIONS,AND ARE'NT WE ONE OF THOSE???
MERRY XMAS TO ONE AND ALL IN BARBADOS
