And there's still another serious traffic accident to report - this one did not result in fatal injury - but the police officer involved did lose both his legs.
Police press officer Fitzroy Yearwood told us about the injury to Sargeant Mark August in yesterday afternoon's accident on the southern highway.
Fitzroy Yearwood - Police Press Officer
"So far all we have gathered is that he was on a motor bike and he apparently lost control where he apparently hit a lamp post causing that injury."
"The impact of speed - I haven't receive whether speeding was a factor but I know that he unfortunately lost both legs."
August was rushed from the Southern Regional hospital to the KHMH. Today the KHMH Press Officer told us that August is in a stable condition and in the recovery room - which follows surgery.
August was posted in Punta Gorda.
