Another
drowning has taken place, another young person
has lost a life and the debate regarding safety
measures for Saint Lucia’s beaches continues.
Yanson Dolius, 16, of Bois D’Inde of Anse-La-Raye,
a third former at the Vide Bouteille Secondary

the Roseau Beach.
Reports are that Dolius went to the beach with
a friend two years his senior to bathe that
day and that the currents pulled him under.

that same day.
Anse-La-Raye police were called so too was an
Emergency Medical Team. Dolius was pronounced
