Reported Single Vehicle Car Crash in Smith's Parish

Shortly after 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 6th, 2023, police and other first responders were despatched to a single vehicle road traffic collision involving a motorcar on the North Shore Road near the junction with Jennings Road, Smith's Parish.

Upon arrival officers were informed a female motorist was traveling east along North Shore Road, when she apparently lost control of the vehicle and went over an embankment.

She was reportedly trapped inside the vehicle and was assisted by members of the public who were able to get her out before the arrival of police.

She was attended to at the scene by EMTs and was subsequently transported to KEMH for further treatment for injuries which are not considered life threatening.

The collision resulted in traffic being diverted away from the scene which remained closed for just over an hour.


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.
