Up to late last night, police would not release the names of the four men who died in a motor vehicle accident along the Braco main road in Trelawny yesterday.

The men are said to be hotel workers and were reportedly from foreign countries.

Our news desk understands that all four men were employed to the Bahia Principe Hotel in Pear Tree Bottom, St Ann. The deceased men are from the Dominican Republic and Spain. THE STAR gathered that one of the men was a manager at the hotel and the other three electrical engineers.

The police told THE STAR last night that they have identified the men. They are, however, withholding the names for undisclosed reasons.
