A man has been injured in an accident on the Pond Case main road.
Details are sketchy at this time but Dominica News Online understands that the accident occurred when a dump truck overturned on Thursday afternoon.
An eye witness told DNO that he saw the passenger of the truck lying on the ground, probably seriously injured.
The circumstances surrounding the accident are unknown.
DNO will follow and update this story when more information becomes available.
My people, please stop this nonsence about junbies and lajabless, accidents happens everywhere due mostly to our irrisponsible way of driving. Drivers have to be more aware of their surrounding and the speed that they drive I do wish this young man a speedy recovery. Praying for all of you my friends. God bless.
How can you people say that you are Christian and yet believe in that Jumbie nonesense.My father in heaven would never allow me to be destroyed by that supposed jumbie,when he knows that I need all the protection he can give.I travel on that road at all hours of the day and have yet to come face to face with any jumbie,The only jumbie I have met on that road are the drivers who act like ROAD DEVILS and believe me there are quite a few road monsters on our roads
I was home two weeks ago and I must say, I never realized how many people actually believe in spirits and jumbies.
Who I’m I to doubt. If the drivers keep seeing a jubmie that’s causing vehicular accidents, then summon a priest with some Holy Water. Lol.
@ Anthony
Are you blind, deaf or sleeping? They exist in all countries. Do not pretend that they do not exist. There are the evil occults, the devil worshippers. They come from every country, Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America and Australia – all the continents and the Caribbean islands.
By the way, interestingly, some years ago I heard that the Caribbean islands, from north and south, Jamaica to Trinidad and vice versa were supposedly to be South America. You will understand that this includes all the other islands in-between. Is this not something? Through erosion of those islands have been separated.
There are godly people and ungodly ones in those places. Those who are evil bring their evil practices with them and wherever they migrated.
Our Lord said, “By their fruits you will know them.” If you are a genuinely godly person, you will know that their words and actions will depict them. People cannot hide their evil ways and by no means for long. You do know that people have good and bad in them and practice such wherever they may be and wherever they work. Some people have good minds and others have wicked minds. Be open-minded. Believe, do not doubt or deny it.
I think the “Jumbie” is back on the prowl again. Lol. This time, it’s operating in the day time as well. Lol.
@ Anthony
Do not make me laugh. Evil really thrives at any time of the day but worst in the dark. If people worship God and pray, they could drive away those spirits.
Being a Catholic Christian, specifically when I go out I wear a blest gold chain with a small gold crucifix. Know that it is a great protection.
Prior to leaving home I bless myself with Holy Water and ask Our Lord to keep me safe. I always keep a small bottle of Holy Water with me.
We need to be protected at all times through the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
If you are a Catholic, I read that the Blessed Virgin Mary said to some visionaries since 1984, “Restore the use of Holy Water in your home.” This also means blessing yourself, your family, your surroundings and country. It never fails for this is a message from Our Lord Jesus Christ, through His Holy Spirit as Our Lady tells us. It also grants much peace of heart and in the home.
Many have swayed from the truth and of the Catholic Faith and its practice/devotions. Therefore, they suffer for it and the evil spirits surround them wherever they go which also projects in their heart, mind and words.
We must drive away the demons from us and our country. We can only do this with the help of God and the ‘blest’ Sacramentals which He has approved. Holy Water is one of them.
There is no jumbie. The jumbie is reckless and
speed. I hope the young man will be ok drivers
think of other people’s live.
WHAT ABOUT THE DRIVERS’ CONDITION?
I cannot understand, the man is injured lying there I suppose waiting for an ambulance or for professional help, and this dude is there taking pictures of the suffering man? Rather than offering some comfort or reassurance that he is going to be ok. OMG.
NEGATIVE, NEGATIVE, NEGATIVE AGAIN!! Why do some Dominicans always talk negative and hardly any positive. Come on think of it Pond Casse is like a highway for some drivers they tend to speed but one thing they forget bout especially the bus drivers is that there are other lives at risk when they speed on the road. Not only in Pond Casse but everywhere. Stop the negative thinking and start thinking positive.
Wayy
wat jumbie. i have beta pics on my phone than those here. where all u see blood. all you people want to be driving like all u mad, not even on all you side and then when shit happen saying is jumbie. if the young padna die, the driver shud b charged wit murder, reckless drivin. the truck driver was fast and not on his side, when he see the the grey jeep coming in the opposite direction he try and pull back, that is when the weight of the stuff on board flip him. all you doe see doe talk. jumbie my . all of all you that want to go there and pray no why all you want to go and pray der. dirty all you hands dirty. DNO report on what they hear happen and not reallly what happened. dam dumincans
@ i WAS DER,
You talking about dirty hand, my dear dirty hands are all aroung us in DA right now, since they arrived in DA the island is in a mess, no names no nationality
If what them people are saying about evil activities in this area, the churches in DA need to go up there and plead the blood of the Almighty over whatever entities taking over that place
The island need cleansing
I totally agree…plenty evil in the place..you don’t know who to trust these days
DA had this going on before any nationality
can there, don’t blame no boby this was going
long long time ago.
@ Merv
One of the worst things that happened to Dominica is the infiltration of the numerous non-Catholics religions. They have not done anything good for Dominica and to make Dominica a better and safe place. They came to DA saying that they will bring the people to Our Lord Jesus Christ and save them. So much for that. What has this produced? More crimes and murders. This is what has sadly happened to our beautiful island. If they were so godly and genuinely so, they would have been instrumental in making Dominica free of sin, of crime and murders. They have failed. This should inform you that they are not approved by God.
As the saying, “Do not go where the paths lead but go where there is no path and live a trail.”
St. Paul said: “We do not go where Christ has already been proclaimed.” It is in Holy Scripture. As they go about preaching the Bible, they really do not know what is truly contained in the Bible and/or overlooked it just as what Our Lord said, “Do this in memory of Me…The Holy Mass…The Sacrifice and Celebration of the Mass.”
What Catholics of all need is to cultivate their faith. If they live a godly life as they attend Church, they would not be swayed by the false prophets of our time.
I am not a Catholic Christian for nothing. Thanks be to God and His spiritual enlightenment.
Sorry, driving his truck
It really seems like ther is smthing in this area. We need to assemble and go cast out this demon. Bro glad tht u are ok. Sis praying for u.
It seems tht place really got smthing we need to gather an assembly and go out to cast out the demons in tht place. Bro glad tht ur ok. Ur sis praying for u.
In the days of science, technolgy and engineering that’s your best soluton?! Really?! If only there were in deed demons to cast them into dumb-minicans like you. Perhaps we would see rational logical comments to rational logical circumstances.
I guess ur another dumb one too
@ Reader
This is the problem of agnostics and atheists. Can science and technology grant you happiness, peace, security and save you? Give this a good thought.
WHOSE TRUCK IS THIS, WHO WAS THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER, HOW SERIOUS IS IT? NEED SOME DETAILS PLEASE
The police needs to investigate what happened there many years back. It seems that someone had died their which needs to be lead to rest with a priest blessing the area.
Well go bless there. Stupes! Dotish
could be that…the place could have a tormented soul…these things do happen
see my padna boi chuck star boi
I am practically in tears. This is so sad, I hope the young man makes a full recovery. Please my people be careful on the roads. May the Lord heal him.
In bygone years we did not hear of a spirit which is, as stated, sometimes seen on that road. In the past I have traveled on this road to and from the airport and cannot recall seeing any such thing or hearing about it including accidents taking place in that area.
Some people have (or had) cottages at Pond Casse and I have visited there. It was a great weekend/holiday getaway for many people. Nothing was ever stated about what others have stated they have seen.
If I recall, Pond Casse is the centre of Dominica. It is the coldest (coolest) place in DA since it often rains in that area. We would wear a sweater if we were visiting there especially in the early mornings and if we were there in the evenings.
Since when did this thing commence showing itself/herself to travelers on that road?
How sad, another accident and at Pond Casse. The man looks as if his legs are injured. Poor man. I feel his pain and for him. I do hope he will recover in time. May God help him.
The road appears to be under construction. It is not paved. This is what may have caused the accident.
Sad to hear. Hope the injured makes a speedy recovery. There was another accident at Fond Cole, next to the Deep Water Harbour.
Let us pray.
let us all pray 4 dem ,and stop tlk about jumbie
and pray , put god 1’st
Thats right. Talking stupidness about jumbie smh..
some of you ppl take these things for a joke?im sure if it happens to one(s)family wouldn’t find nothing funny bout this.the area in question where this accident took place doesn’t appear to be bad an so drivers tend to speed up however it is a bit bumpy an it is felt under high speed.im not saying the trucker was fast but there’s other things that should be taken into consideration such as the road,obstruction,oil or water on road an smooth tires.i wish the injured man well.
Could not agree more. Defensive Driving Techniques pays dividends.
1# That road looks like crap.
2# A mac truck cannot turn over easily like that unless Mr was driving 30mph or go in a serious pot hole which i doubt. Seriously people drive better dont blame that dont exist for irresponsible actions.
It is possible that the load could have shifted,making the truck unstable.
the man got injured in his waist, no blood, why are you idiots spreading rumors
no jumbie, its just reckless driving and bold tires
“bald tires”
Problem is, Dem man driving too fast on that piece of road..Cool down bredthren,can’t be too busy to attend your own funeral.
nothing is wrong driving in this area. Driver need to take precaution when driving on this smooth road. pertaining to the picture, why should some one be that close taking the victims picture when he is in dyer need of help…..
And what can anyone do for him now…the photographer is not a medical doctor.
Papa God, it seems Pond Case really have a Jumbie.
People be aware, if you not covered under the blood of Jesus, don’t pass in Pond Case. The White lady Jumbie will make you have an accident.
I think all you need to get pastor BJ to pray in that area.
@ uuu
You made me laugh. I recall what was previously stated about that spirit. I hope not this time. It may have been too early in the day for this appearance.
Mista Blood doh dry up yet nuh???
..they tired tell allyou is an ajabless that there and not a jumbie.. ..big difference….
This is just nonsense you are talking about. Jumbie what !!
I am from CB and have been passing there EVERYDAY for the last 45yrs. There are countless other drivers from other villages around using this road as well on a daily basis, and they have had no accidents….So what can you say about that?
My take is how you drive on these roads…not just this one, but all our roads. As drivers, we have to be responsible when we drive. Most of our roads are small, winding, narrow and in some areas smooth….with these conditions, it becomes very easy to get involve in an accident.
So again just asking all drivers to be more vigilant with the road conditions so as to better safe guard themselves, their passengers and their vehicles.
Well said Malick ! That is the same argument I always use when I hear that a certain stretch of road in dangerous.
So it is Wat Eva happen it must happen
PAPA God! It seems what they say about the jumbie is true.
People be aware, if you are not covered under the blood of Jesus, don’t travel on pon case highway, the jumbie will crash you!!!!!! I hear they say is a white lady jumbie
That is such an ignorant and dumb thing to say!
Again
boi allu taking dat for joke but somting dere for real know i drive there and not seeing wat dat there to cause an accideent but trust me when we raech there we need to push our vehicles to cross their no joke.
No no no bad advice dont push yr rides ppl cuz thats wat the road wants, take all u time cruise if u all have to cuz that road not nothing easy if its like that.
@ dirty harry
The next time you travel in that area bring some Holy Water and when approaching the area sprinkle it with the Holy Water as you make the Sign of the Cross – In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen! It works. Whatever is there must retreat and disappear. At the Name of Jesus demons have to flee.
so persons just watching the man bleed and not doing anything…something can always be done to lessen the bleeding…gosh man…
i think you need glasses….only if you have bionic eyes to see inside him..SMH
ysomething can be done. but if the are not properly trained they are doing the best thing. they could do more harm than good without the proper training
I did not see any blood gushing from him. What you see under his head is a backpack or something placed there for support, not blood.
good intention but bad advice especially if the person is non-responsive.
let the trained professionals handle situations like these unless if it’s life or death.
BOUNDIA! BOUNDIA! BOUNDIA! Hope all is fine and not badly hurt.PRAY For them.
pond casse again
The jumbie strikes again. SMH
