Man stuck in car wreck

(CNS) A 34-year-old man who has sustained serious head injuries is believed to have been lying in the car wreck through the night along the Queens’ Highway in East End before he was discovered and taken to hospital Thursday morning. Arrangements are currently being made to airlift the man to Miami for treatment, police said, as they appealed for anyone who may know how the car smash occurred. The injured driver was discovered at around 7am Thursday morning by a man cycling in the area who spotted a badly damaged white Mitsubishi Pajero in the bush some 75 feet from the road.

The cyclist approached the vehicle and found a badly injured man inside and raised the alarm. Emergency Services attended the scene and the driver of the vehicle was taken to the Cayman Islands Hospital, George Town, suffering from serious head injuries.

Police said that enquiries have so far revealed that man may have been lying injured within the vehicle for several hours.

Inspector Adrian Barnett, of the RCIPS Traffic Management Unit, is appealing for anyone who may have seen the white Mitsubishi Pajero driving on the road between 7.00pm last night and the time the vehicle was found this morning.

Anyone with information should contact the RCIPS Traffic Management Unit on 946-6254.
