A ZR DRIVER had to be freed from his vehicle and taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) after a collision with a ten-wheeler sewage truck in Haynesville, St James, yesterday afternoon.

on her shin.
The truck, belonging to the National Housing Corporation, was driven by Mitchell Hinds, of 5A Field Road, Wildey, St Michael. He and colleagues Ronald Price and Anthony Flatts escaped without injury. (MK)
