Morning Crash on Sir Sydney Walling Highway Sends Two to Hospital
Traffic along Sir Sydney Walling Highway slowed to a crawl Tuesday morning after a two-vehicle collision near the Factory Cricket Field left two people nursing minor injuries.
The accident, which occurred during the early rush hour, involved a male and a female motorist. Emergency Medical Services were quickly on the scene and transported both drivers to the Sir Lester Bird Medical Center. Doctors have since confirmed that their injuries are not considered life-threatening.
The crash forced police to divert traffic through the Gunthorpes community, causing delays for commuters heading into the city.
Investigators have not yet released details on what may have caused the collision, but officers are urging drivers to exercise caution along the busy highway, particularly during peak hours.
