Around 11:45am on Wednesday, June 19th police and first responders attended a reported single vehicle collision on Middle Road in Devonshire near the junction with Corkscrew Hill.
It appears that a car being driven along Middle Road collided with a wall to the ‘Clifton’ property. The driver, a 30 year old Paget woman, was not injured; however she was apparently taken to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital via ambulance for medical assessment as a precaution. Both the vehicle and the wall were damaged.
