A man collapsed and died yesterday, shortly after he began eating a chicken roti he had bought minutes earlier.
Bertrand Ragbirsingh, 53, of Railway Road, Couva, was drinking with two friends before they went to the roti shop around 11.30 a.m. While eating, one of Ragbirsingh's friends complained to the shop owner that his roti had a funny taste and a foul smell, police said.
Investigators said while complaining, the friend heard a loud noise, turned around and saw Ragbirsingh on the ground choking.
Ragbirsingh was rushed to the Couva District Hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.
Couva police seized several items from the roti shop and shut it down.
Wtf guys make sure you know and trust who you buy food from.
