BID TO RETRIEVE POT COSTS LIFE: An attempt to retrieve a pot from the well proved costly, when a 38-year-old man from Shetye waddo in Duler drowned in the well on Friday. Mapusa police said Mario S Colaco, a native of Verna, descended into the nearby well at about 9.45 am, in order to retrieve a pot which had fallen in the well a few days earlier. Colaco removed the pot and was coming up without the assistance of a rope, when he slipped and fell into the well. Those present above then lowered a rope to aid Colaco's climb and as Colaco was climbing up, he slipped for the second time and drowned in the well. (H)

I wonder if a helmet would have helped dear Mr. Colaco? RIP.


And, Oh! Yes!


VIVA GOA!!!
