On Saturday morning 54-year old exterminator Ryan Swift died under mysterious circumstances. Swift and his 61-year-old brother Steve had just finished doing some morning work and were drinking rum and socializing at his residence and office on Central American Boulevard.
Steve left the compound to go and buy something but when he came back his brother was on the ground seizing. A frightened Steve ran to go and get help but then the same thing happened to him. He survived, but his brother did not. This morning we spoke to Ryan's son, Mark who was still shocked by his father's very sudden and strange death.

"My dad and Steve would run a joke to set it up but as usual Steve did not have any money so my dad got his money and he gave Steve. Steve went to buy the rum and he came back. They were both sitting down and usually after Steve buys for my dad he usually goes and buys his cigarette off the little money he makes, so he went to buy his cigarette and apparently when he came back he saw my dad on the ground. He was frightened when he saw my dad so he ran across the street to get help. I don't know what happened between that time but apparently, two of them drank the same stuff."

"And your uncle is in bad shape as well right?"
Mark Anthony Swift, Son of Deceased
"Yeah well right now he is not doing too good but I hope he makes it."
"He was very optimistic. He always looked on the brighter side of things and he was a real patriot of the country meaning that whatever he does he does it for his country and the betterment of the people."
"I just don't know right and usually it is not only him and Steve there. A lot of people are there and that morning only two people were there and it was Ryan and Steve. We just can't figure out if someone else was there."
The autopsy has not been performed yet. Swift leaves behind a total of 7 children.
