Fatal Collision: Car Located, Three Arrested
[Updated] The police confirmed that the black car that was involved in the collision that resulted in the death of 22-year-old La-Nae Woodley has been located, and a 27-year-old woman has been taken into police custody.
Collision Occurs
At 4.00am on Saturday morning [April 18] a double hit and run collision occurred in Warwick, resulting in the death of 22-year-old La-Nae Woodley.
The police said that Ms Woodley was traveling on a motorcycle, when a truck collided with her and left the scene. The police said following that, a black car “drove through the collision scene making contact,” and this car also left the scene.
First Vehicle Located, Man Arrested
Around three hours after the collision occurred, a 26-year-old man was arrested and the truck allegedly involved in the collision was in police custody. The police continued to appeal for information about the driver of the second vehicle, a black car, that also left the scene.
Second Vehicle Located, Woman Arrested
Just past midnight on Sunday, April 19th, a police spokesperson said, “The black car that was involved in the road traffic fatality that took place on Saturday morning was located and a 27 year old woman has been taken into police custody as a result.”
Update April 20, 11.12am: The police confirmed at a press conference this morning this lady has been bailed. They said three people in total was arrested, two were bailed, and one man was put before the Courts today. We will have the full details later today.
The police also stressed that the 37-year-old motorcyclist, who was originally arrested at the scene for suspicion of DUI, passed the test and was very willing to stay at the scene and assist police with their investigation into the collision,
Is it automatic and common practice now to flee an accident scene?
If the first person had not fled the victim might still be alive, or maybe not. Who knows? But even so what kind of person collides with someone and doesn’t even stop to see if they are OK? How incredibly cowardly, careless and selfish is that? Did they even try to call an ambulance? Do these people care about anybody but themselves?
God is good
Sorry, but I have a major problem with the statement that “God is good.” I see absolutely no indication of that at all. In fact just the opposite.
Common sense is not too common…huh!! People are in custody…vehicles impounded pending investigation!! Wow…
@ Common Sense: God doesn’t control the evil in people. It selfish people who take it upon themselves to not care about their fellow men… I believe what Thank U was saying, that “God is good” for the people being caught who maybe responsible for this dreadful incident..
My prayers go out to the family and friends of La-Nae Woodley.
God is GOOD; God is love, peace, care and all great things. It is the devil that owns all negative, pain and suffering.
People SO need to recognize!!!
Amen
May the families hang on to their faith and know that God will get them through. Keep the devil away.
xo
Yes, God is good, but that comment really doesn’t fit the circumstances and loss of life that the family is presented with. Please don’t just throw God in there randomly. He will help the family cope with the loss, but choose words that help, not confuse.
Then why did he let 75 MILLION people DIE in the second world war??? And what about all these kids who have cancer from an early age!!! Explain all of that to me!!
I can ask why are 6 billion people currently living today..is this by God’s grace? in our arrogance as humans we believe we are to have all the answers..and when we don’t we cop a tude..
What kind of God allows people to be run over like a dog in the street?
God is good all the time we just don’t realise it. God gave man the authority to run the earth.So don’t blame God for the young lady’s death.Blame man for doing such a poor job.God gave us a free will of choice and those two drivers that hit that lady failed BIG time.
But God is supposed to be omnipotent in all places at all times. He must have been having a nap. Same as when he let that aircraft be crashed into the Alps.
We’re living in a sinful world; God’s time to replenish and cure is yet to come.
I can advise you to stop and think about what you’re saying about the same God whom is keeping you alive today .. STOP talking about what our Lord above has let happened things happen for reasons that are beyond our control FOOL of course what DO you know about life .. I hope THAT STUPID thought of yours doesn’t catch up with .. You better pray that it doesn’t IDIOT
somebody died and god is good?
Eh?, I think they mean god is good because they tracked down the second a** hole who fled the scene.
then the statement should be “BPS is good!”
GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!!
You must live in “utopia”!!! Wake-up and smell the coffee and take a good look around the world!! It is in a very BIG mess!! I do NOT see a “higher power” helping anywhere!!
My condolences to the family for their loss of a loved one. I also wish the other young lady involved a speedy recovery and pray that she isnt affected too badly by the loss of her friend/relative.
I also hope the drivers of the other vehicles will now be helpful and assist police were needed. Its an unfortunate time for all involved as I’m sure no one goes out looking for something like this to happen.
Their actions brings a lifetime of self sentence I pray for their heasrts minds and spirits and the families of the deceased and that the injured will physically recover and that she and her family will call on Jesus for all that they need for He is their peace in the midsdt of this their storm.
Why wouldn’t these folks do the honourable think and turn themselves in???
Because they are lowlife scum. They walk among us, unfortunately.
Because they are “scumbags”!! They don’t know the meaning of the word!! They should both be charged with vehicular manslaughter!!
It’s not a tough question, if I was her I would have been on the phone/ meeting with a good a** lawyer.
Any lawyer with some sense would tell you to turn yourself in.
Give her life in prison!!!! With no food or water… No bed sheets or toilet paper. Treat her like the dog she is.
That is an insult to dogs frankly.
Both ought to be ashamed of themselves.. this is painful – after an accident call for help!!! She may have been alive today only God knows. For crying out LOUD PEOPLE HAVE MERCY, WHERE THE LOVE NOW DAYS!!!
Praying for the family of Ms. Woodley.Don’t know her but can’t stop thinking about her.Such a terrible tragedy and for the two low lifes that left her in the road to die,you ran but you couldn’t hide.
Hopefully – they will both be “locked-up” for a good many years!! A young life was taken and there MUST be severe consequences for that type of behavior!!
Our Prayers go out for the Woodley family especially at this hour and all families and friends that is being affected by the tragic event. my mind can not even conceive the level of pain that these folk are dealing with, so in sincerity we pray their strength in the Lord and ask that we all be mindful that we never know what a day will bring or how a night will end. May God in His Wisdom through time help bring a healing and understanding to such a tragic loss and may you find His grace and peace sufficient in due course.
Very sad
Good job in finding truck and car involved and i hope that the judge does as good work in putting the guilty away for the max time with out the possibilty of ever letting them use vehicles as weapons against people again.
what a great tragedy, and a sad day for our community, mercy! I am so sorry this happen to this young lady, my condolences to her family, it brings tears to my eyes
Condolences to the family and praying for a speedy and full recovery to the other lady.
I see there are some Dislikes to all the positive comments. I am hoping the Dislike buttons were pressed in error. #umjustsaying
Everyone says “how can someone just leave a scene
?” But if you’ve never been in that situation it hard understand what logic, emotion or fears s person is experiencing.
People panic and do stupid things.
Let be mindful that there are more that one family suffering.
Oh come on. Making excuses for them? They knew exactly what they were doing.
All the if’s, and’s and but’s will not make a world of difference. Obviously we are a people who have lost our values and certainly do not put God first. Let”s pray for the victims, families & acquaintances of those involved in this tragedy. God Bless Bermuda!
Glad they are found. This messed system. Slap on the wrist. Watch, mark my word. Thank God for cameras on every other light pole
Somehow I don’t think that the penalty for leaving the scene of a crash, serious or not, is very high.
I hope the unfortunate result of this results in more severe consequences for those involved.
This is a very sad situation. I pray for all of the families as they go through this difficult time.
Finally CCTV that work. My condolences to the Woodley & Eve Families,The Berkeley 2010 Graduating class which Lanae was part of and all her friends. I don’t know her personally but I do know all others who knew her.
I’m perplexed at the “dislikes” from the comments thus far! Something is clearly wrong with these people, especially when they don’t even reply stating why they hit “dislike”! Hmmm…
They have the wrong person….
Very tragic incident.
People react in many ways.
Be assured all you so quick to condemn that this could have been you.
See^.
The family is grieving.
I doubt the person who ‘supposedly ‘ came into contact with the victim knew and if they did; time will tell.
The Police have done a great job along with others since the incident.
Lets wait.
Shalom.
If this doesn’t prove that we need some serious action taken here concerning peoples drinking and driving I don’t know what will. This is a massive wake up call, I don’t know how the Canadians do it, but it sure is worth looking into, people there do not drink and drive because they are scared, well it’s time here for people to be scared. This is one of those events that people will not forget, GET SERIOUS! My total condolences to the family.
There’s a program in Canada called RIDE. There are stops posted at on ramps and high traffic areas where you have to stop to get through. Yes, people still drink and drive but trust that you are more mindful. People are willing to leave their cars and find another way home for safety’s sake.
Agreed Ann.
You go down or under in Canada.
No if’s, and’s or but’s.
Who gives a damn about what is done in Canada? People in Canada do not drink and drive? Really???
Condolences to the young lady’s family and a speedy recovery to the other young lady. Tell me what will make them scared, because with so many terrible accidents that we have had people’s lifestyles have not changed.Do you think that if they show many of those graphic pictures of injuries and the result of such , it might work.
My dearest condolences to the family.
Did I hear correctly that the pillion passenger was a 16 year old out at 4am!?
No she was 24
@truthiskillinme Firstly the pillion passenger WAS NOT 16 and secondly, DOES THAT EVEN MATTER? You’re’ focusing on her age but the other young lady is dead. Please focus on what’s important here.
I know this will not bring back that beautiful young lady but those two in custody if they are the right people will NEVER live this down.Everywhere they go everything they do every word they utter they will always be remembered for what they did.
Absolutely right.
Living with that memory for the rest of what will probably be a very long life will be hell.
A hell that they deserve frankly.
As I said they had the wrong person. She has been released….. Now they need to find out quickly who really done this !
She was bailed. I don’t see anything that says she didn’t do it.
Figured… that person is in hiding!
Car owner or other probably has no idea of incident and drove it without knowledge.
Crazy!! Worse to think it could be someone known. I doubt this person(s) of car/jeep will come forth right away. Very sad.
all this talk about god,,In the seventeen hundreds say 1755 give or take,, in Lisbon Portugal one of the holiest city’s in all of Europe, a catholic city, all saints day, one of the holiest days back then, everyone was in church worshiping,that morning there was an earth quake,and what buildings are most vulnerable to earthquakes? the tallest ones, the tallest buildings anywhere in the seventeen hundreds were churches on that holy morning in Lisbon, in Portugal ,on all saints day, while in church, 80 thousand people died in their churches ,, guess what followed, a tsunami basically wiping out the entire city of Lisbon clean,
That was the beginning of what we today think of as the modern day atheist movement
If there is a god, and we had this tsunami that killed 80 thousand people, and wiped out a holy city on a holy day collapsing buildings on people then either god is not all powerful, or god is not all good, that’s if we define good by being interested in your health and longevity, I think that’s a fair definition of being good, so what is he? Or is he even real? I think he is a figure of ancient imagination
