Third medal for Jamaica at Youth Para Pan Am Games

Jamaica copped its third medal at the 2017 Youth Para Pan American Games, now taking place in Sao Paulo, when Jason Brown won bronze in the men's Under-19 T12 400 metres. Jamaica Paralympic Association president Christopher Samuda has labelled the accomplishment a remarkable one.

Brown started training as a para athlete less than six months and now has two medals after he won a bronze medal in the T12 100 metres on Monday. Tevaughn Thomas won silver on Monday in the T46/47 100 metres.

The closing ceremony of the Games will be on Saturday evening and the team is scheduled to return to Jamaica next Monday.
