WATCH: APUA employees escaped serious injuries along Sir George Walter highway
The Antigua Broadcasting Station is reporting that two employees of the Antigua Public Utilities Authority escaped serious injury or worse when a Toyota Vitz slammed into the back of a parked bus they were working from.
The incident happened early Tuesday afternoon along Sir George Walter Highway.
Surveillance video shows when the speeding Vitz slammed into the bus, moments after the two men had scurried to safety.
The driver of the Vitz was rushed to hospital with what appeared to be serious injuries, while the APUA workers appeared largely unscathed. They will however receive a thorough medical check-up.
This was one of four traffic crashes within a three-hour period on Tuesday. In another incident, a police constable was rushed to hospital after being hit by his motorcycle along Independence Avenue. The extent of his injuries is not clear at this point.
