This is the bizarre moment the body of a murder victim was dressed and propped up to play one last game of dominos at his own wake.

Jomar Aguayo Collazo’s grieving mother decided her son should be able to enjoy one last game at her bar in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico.

Just before he was due to be buried, his mum dressed him up in a blue tracksuit, baseball cap, gold chain and sunglasses.

She then sat him down at a table with a drink and a dominos set.



Looking like any regular scene in a pub, Collazo’s head is even bowed as if concentrating on the game while he holds a set of tiles.

Guests at the wake took it in turns to sit on the chairs by him while music blared out of the jukebox.

Collazo was 22-years-old when he was shot and killed in the same bar just days before.

He was one of three men killed in what is thought to have been a drugs-related shooting.
