Police investigating fatal traffic accident in Nevis

Authorities in Nevis are intensifying their probe into a tragic traffic accident that resulted in the death of one driver and left another severely injured. The incident, which took place on September 30, 2025, involved three vehicles and occurred between 1:00 p.m. and 3:15 p.m. on Government Road. The vehicles included a motor car (PA1516) driven by Ms. Monique Daniel of Maddens Estate, a motor van (PA5523) operated by Mrs. Sherina Pemberton of Cox Village, and a motor jeep (PB4092) driven by Mr. Recaldo Hendrickson. Preliminary investigations indicate that the collision occurred when PA1516 attempted to turn right onto Pump Road and was struck by PA5523, causing both vehicles to sustain heavy damage. The impact forced PA1516 toward the mountainside, while PA5523 rolled backward and collided with PB4092. Both Daniel and Pemberton were rushed to the hospital, with Pemberton succumbing to her injuries on October 9, 2025. An autopsy is scheduled to determine the exact cause of death. This marks the sixth road fatality in the region this year.
