iciHaiti - Security : An agricultural worker dies intoxicated in Dominican Republic
Jean Edy Presky (32), a Haitian agricultural worker, lost his life following a poisoning from a fumigation in Dominican plantations of Manzanillo, in the sector of Anastasia in the Dominican Republic.

While conducting the daily work of fumigation, Jean Edy Presky had a sudden illness that required its emergency transport in a Dominican hospital. Although his condition seemed not critical to his arrival, according to the testimony of his family, he suddenly had a strong head pain accompanied by difficulty breathing and passed away a few minutes later, despite the efforts of medical staff.

According to the first diagnosis, Jean Edy Presky died following a poisoning, probably caused by chemicals for agricultural use.

Note that this is the second death of a Haitian worker to occur in the same area in less than 2 weeks in very similar circumstances.
