Several people were injured in an accident along Belmont Main Road, St Michael, earlier night.

A preliminary report from police indicated about 15 passengers were injured in the collision between a minivan and a car.

The van, which was heading to Bayfield, St Philip, had 23 passengers.

Two adults and a child were in the car which was extensively damaged. The extent of their injuries, if any, is unknown at this time.

The accident occurred around 7:20 p.m. and three ambulances were dispatched.

People from adjacent neighbourhoods gathered along the street and on the steps of a nearby shop, watching as police and emergency medical technicians worked.

One woman said she heard the sirens much earlier, but was not aware of what had happened. She said there were always accidents at that “four cross” on Belmont Road. (SAT)
