A mem­ber of the Prae­di­al Lar­ce­ny Squad suf­fered a bro­ken arm when the ve­hi­cle in which he was a pas­sen­ger crashed on the Pri­or­i­ty Bus Route (PBR) yes­ter­day morn­ing.

PC Di­az and oth­er of­fi­cers were on mo­bile pa­trol when they re­ceived in­for­ma­tion about a shoot­ing on a farm. While head­ing east along the PBR with lights on and siren blar­ing, they col­lid­ed with a Hon­da CRV near the in­ter­sec­tion of Or­ange Grove Road and the PBR around 10.08 am.

The dri­ver of the Hon­da CRV suf­fered a con­cus­sion. All the peo­ple in­volved in the ac­ci­dent were tak­en to the hos­pi­tal where they treat­ed and dis­charged.

The ve­hi­cle in the ac­ci­dent was one of the four that had re­cent­ly been hand­ed over to the Prae­di­al Lar­ce­ny Squad by Agri­cul­ture Min­is­ter Kaz­im Ho­sein.

In­ves­ti­ga­tions in­to the ac­ci­dent are con­tin­u­ing.
