Aug. 1, 2001 – Two unidentified minors who were struck by a vehicle Wednesday afternoon in the Nadir area were reported in serious condition at Roy L. Schneider Hospital.
Police spokeswoman Annette Raimer said the two were struck at 3:15 p.m. near Sanchez Town in the vicinity of the Clinton E. Phipps Race Track.
Raimer said several police units had to be sent to the area to break up a crowd that gathered after the accident.
She could not say if anyone had been arrested in connection with the accident.
Editor's note: Incorrect information provided by police late Wednesday afternoon said the two injured parties in this accident were both minors. A press release Thursday provided different information. See Woman and Child Die Hours After Auto Accident for update.
