A 34-year-old woman died, and a Mara­cas St Joseph man lost both legs in two sep­a­rate ac­ci­dents on Wednes­day morn­ing.

Around 4 a.m., Nick­eila Ryan of Mon Re­pos Road, Mor­vant, died in a head-on col­li­sion along La­dy Young Road, Mor­vant. Po­lice said Ryan was dri­ving a Nis­san Ti­i­da north along the road­way when she crashed. Her death brought the road fa­tal­i­ty toll to 10 for the year, five few­er than last year.

An hour ear­li­er, Ja­son Roberts lost both legs af­ter crash­ing in­to a bus shed along the Churchill Roo­sevelt High­way. Po­lice said Roberts, of Wharf Trace, Mara­cas St Joseph, was head­ing west around 3:05 a.m. when he re­port­ed­ly lost con­trol of his Nis­san Ti­i­da and crashed in­to a bus shed near Xtra Foods.

Roberts re­mains ward­ed in a sta­ble but se­ri­ous con­di­tion. Fire of­fi­cials re­port­ed that on­ly one of his legs was re­trieved. A pas­sen­ger sus­tained a ma­jor lac­er­a­tion to one of his legs.
