Mom, baby die in Hanover crash
POINT HILL, Hanover – Tragedy struck along the Point Hill main road in Hanover yesterday evening when a mother and her baby daughter died after suffering multiple injuries in a motor vehicle crash.
Up to press time last night, the police did not disclose the identity of the deceased.
Police report that about 2:00 pm the mother was driving a silver motor car during a light shower when she lost control of the vehicle, which developed a skid before colliding head-on with an orange-coloured garbage truck that was heading towards Montego Bay.
The mother and child had to be cut from the mangled remains of the vehicle.
Motorists travelling along the corridor were trapped in long lines of traffic from both ends for hours.
