Another Fatal On Southern Highway
Mon, November 30, 2015
On Friday we told you about the death of Emerson Burke on the Southern Highway and tonight there is another fatal accident to report. This one happened Friday afternoon, where 55-year-old housewife Nelly Lopez was flung from the back of a pickup driven by her 19 year old son. He told police the brakes in the Mazda pickup failed and he swerved to avoid a collision. His mother Nelly was flung from the pan of the truck unto the pavement. She received serious head and body injuries and was transported to the Southern Regional where she succumbed to her injuries.

And there was a serious collision over the weekend in the Corozal District where luckily no one was killed. Six persons, including two children, had to be treated for minor injuries after the head on collision between miles 72 and 73, which is between San Narciso and Louisville Villages.

A white Toyota Taxi Van that was northbound crashed into a grey Ford Ranger. Maria Sho, who was driving the taxi says that the Ford Ranger pickup, driven at the time by 25 year old San Narciso Village resident Roxani Elsi Chan, suddenly pulled out of a compound and crashed into the taxi. The two drivers had to be wrested out of the vehicles and carted away.
