Bike tragedy

Share post:

FORTY-THREE-YEAR-OLD Toni Barrow was an adventurous woman who got her beloved motorcycle just over a year ago.

The mother of two was riding that bike around 10:45 a.m. yesterday when she collided with an embankment at Barbarees Hill, St Michael, and died on the spot.

“She enjoyed riding that bike. When I heard she got a motorcycle I was like, ‘You get a motorcycle at this age?’ but she said she always wanted to learn to ride, and she did. When she got the motorcycle she was happy and I told her to be careful on the road,” daughter, Sade Harris, 27, told the DAILY NATION.

She said her mother, who had been ill last week, loved nature and had planted several trees around her home at Paradise Road, Spooners Hill, St Michael.
