A 55-year-old Englishman who resides in St Paul's Bay is in a critical condition following a traffic accident on the Coast Road, limits of Naxxar, early yesterday morning.

The man was a passenger in a Suzuki Vitara driven by a 44-year-old woman from St Paul's Bay towards Kennedy Grove. The driver appears to have lost control of the vehicle, which overturned, hitting the wall on the side of the road, police said. The woman was also injured but is not in danger. The driver and passenger were assisted out of the vehicle by Civil Protection Department officials.

Shortly afterwards, a car driven by a 46-year-old woman from Attard in the same direction, crashed into the Suzuki, police said.
