A 22-year-old woman from Nadur, Gozo, died last night in a traffic accident in Munxar.

The police said the woman was a passenger in a car which was involved in a head-on collision with another car at about 12.30am.

The cars were a Vauxhall Insignia driven by a 20-year-old man from Ghasri and a Honda CRX driven by a 25-year-old man from Victoria.

The victim was a passenger in the Honda.

Both drivers were hospitalised and treated for slight injuries.  

This was the second traffic fatality in Gozo this month. A 30-year-old motorcyclist from Sannat died on April 4 after crashing into an electricity pole in Mġarr Road, Xewkija.

A young man died when he was thrown from a car following a crash near Nadur early on New Year's Day.
