Injury RTC

Around 8:50am today, a reported road traffic collision resulting in injury occurred on St. John’s Road in Pembroke near the junction with Berkeley Road involving a car and a pedestrian. It appears that the victim, a 14 year old young man from Sandys parish, was crossing the pedestrian crossing by the bus stop on St. John’s Road as a car had already stopped to let the teenager across. However another car traveling west on St. John’s Road collided with the Berkeley Institute student and continued westward without stopping. The victim was taken to KEMH and treated for an injury to his right knee. Inquiries into this incident are underway. Police are appealing for any witnesses to this collision, especially anyone who saw a white coloured car that apparently collided with the 14 year old young man from Sandys parish and left the scene. Anyone with any information is encouraged to contact PC Seymour Foote on 295-0011.


All incidents are under investigation. Police are appealing to members of the public who have witnessed these incidents or may have information pertaining to them to contact their respective Police Station, Police Headquarters at 295-0011 or the confidential Crimestoppers Hotline on 1 (800) 623-8477.
