Community mourns after suspected drowning at Rivière Dorée leaves 51-year-old Cornelius Eugene dead

CHOISEUL, St Lucia — A suspected drowning at Rivière Dorée in Choiseul has claimed the life of 51-year-old Cornelius “Corny” Eugene, a well-known resident of Roblot. Authorities confirmed the tragic incident occurred on Sunday, September 28, as community members expressed shock at the loss.

The details surrounding Cornelius Eugene’s death remain unclear, but a video circulating on social media shows his body lying near the riverbed. The footage has sparked speculation across Choiseul, where residents voiced sadness and concern over the circumstances.

Local bystanders reportedly gathered as emergency personnel responded to the scene. While no official statement has yet been issued by the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force, the case is being treated as a suspected drowning until further investigations are complete.

The incident adds to a troubling series of water-related fatalities reported across St Lucia in recent months. In March, Wilter Joseph was discovered dead in the Bexon River, a case that drew significant community concern. Earlier this year, a 70-year-old Choiseul man was found after a suspected drowning in Soufrière, and just weeks ago, police launched a probe into another suspected drowning.

The recent series of incidents has heightened public concern about water safety across the island. Community members and officials have increasingly emphasized the need for greater caution around rivers, beaches, and other swimming areas. Observers note that initiatives such as public awareness campaigns, swimming lessons, and clearer safety signage could help reduce future risks.

As of Monday morning, the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force had not released further information on the circumstances that led to Eugene’s death. Relatives, meanwhile, are left grappling with grief as tributes pour in across social media.

Unitedpac St Lucia News will continue to follow this developing story and provide updates once authorities issue an official report.
