Two Motorcyclists Injured in Three Vehicle Devonshire Collision

Around 4:45pm Tuesday, March 21st police and first responders attended a reported three vehicle collision on Frog Lane in Devonshire, near the junction with Gymnasium Road.

It appears that a car being driven along Frog Lane collided with two motorcyclists and then struck a traffic island near the junction with Parsons Road as well as a utility pole, before finally coming to a stop.

The injured riders, a 45 year old Sandys parish man and a 34 year old Devonshire man were transported to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital via ambulance for treatment and later discharged.

The driver of the car, a 26 year old Smith’s parish man, was arrested on suspicion of impaired driving and subsequently released on police bail pending a court appearance in due course.

Traffic diversions were in effect while the relevant police personnel processed the scene.

BELCO personnel responded to repair the damaged utility pole and the three damaged vehicles were eventually towed away.

Inquiries continue and any witnesses should contact the main police telephone number 295-0011.
