A 74-year-old woman was injured during a three-car collision yesterday afternoon near the accident-prone intersection of Chalan Pale Arnold and Kopa Di Oru in Garapan. <\/p>\n
Department of Fire and Emergency Medical Services spokesman Derek Gersonde said the victim, a Korean national, complained of head pain and was brought to the Commonwealth Health Center\u2019s emergency room.<\/p>\n
Gersonde said DFEMS received a call from the Department of Public Safety about an auto collision at 1:02pm.<\/p>\n
Medics from the Garapan Fire Station responded and came upon the 74-year-old Korean involved in the three-car collision on Chalan Pale Arnold or Middle Road south of the Torres law office. <\/p>\n
No other details were given.<\/p>\n
DPS has yet to release information about the accident. <\/p>\n
Last August, five persons, including a minor, were injured when a van loaded with tourists fell into a ditch after it collided with a car at the accident-prone intersection. <\/p>\n
Last January, a car collided with a pickup truck in the same intersection, causing the male passenger of the truck to be tossed into the air. He died after a few days in the hospital. The driver, a music teacher, was arrested but the government subsequently dismissed the traffic charges against him. (Ferdie de la Torre)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
