A couple died early yesterday morning after a collision along the Cummings Lodge Railway Embankment Road.
Dennis Ross and his girlfriend, Jewel Pestano, 19, of Albouystown, who were riding on a motorcycle, collided with a taxi around 3.30 am. The driver of the taxi was later arrested after a breathalyser test found that his breath alcohol content was above the legal limit.
Pestano’s family was told that couple had been traveling west along the embankment road on Ross’ motorcycle, CE 9653, when the car, HC 4097, which was traveling east along the road, without any lights, collided with them head on.
