NASSAU, BAHAMAS — A man was found hanging from a wooden beam on the front porch of his home in Hope Town, Abaco, on Saturday in what police are investigating as a suicide.

The identity of the man was not released.

According to authorities, the man, a Caucasian, was found around 1pm.

Police said: “Upon the officer’s arrival, the initial investigations revealed that persons in the area observed a Caucasian adult male hanging from the wooden beam on the front porch of his residence lifeless.

“Further, they went over to assist and took him down.”

CPR was performed on the man, but the attempt was unsuccessful.

It was unclear how long the man had been hanging.

Police said their investigation was ongoing into the incident.

This is the second suspected suicide in recent months on the island.

In September, a man was found lying on his back in his home with an apparent gunshot injury to his head.

Police were alerted to the discovery at the man’s home on Don McKay Boulevard shortly after 5pm on September 23.

Can someone please find out why there are still persons who hasn’t gotten paid their due since election the 16th of September to date. How is it that no one has taken notice of this, or decide to do nothing about it.

Furthermore, it is becoming very frustrating for a lot of persons like myself who do need it and cannot and has not received it.

The only thing we get is we don’t have an answer yet it was supposed to have been posted in october, but it was not. We were then told to have patience it’s going to come. Months later we are still waiting for it to arrive. What in the hell?

So with that said is there anything that you, Mr Watson, can find out for those of us, which be the majority of the workers, who have yet to be paid for working the polls.
