St. John\u2019s, Antigua and Barbuda, Monday, 16 February 2026<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The police are continuing investigations into the circumstances surrounding a traffic collision on Pares Main Road that resulted in the death of 47-year-old Gregson Hixon of Grays Farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incident involved a white Honda Fit motor car that was travelling from west to east along Pares Main Road.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The allegations are that the driver swerved to avoid colliding with an animal in the vicinity of Welch\u2019s Supermarket and collided with the sidewalk on the southern side of the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, the driver reportedly lost control of the vehicle, which subsequently veered off the northern side of the road and collided with a large stone.
The impact caused the vehicle to overturn onto its side and burst into flames.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Both the driver and the passenger were rescued from the vehicle with the assistance of fire officers and Emergency Medical Services personnel.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

They were transported to the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre, where Hixon later succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead. The driver remains in the hospital in stable condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Police Administration extends sincere condolences to the family and friends of the deceased during this difficult time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Motorists are reminded to exercise due care and attention on the nation\u2019s roads, particularly in areas that are poorly lit.
Drivers are also urged to remain vigilant for stray animals, especially along roadways bordered by densely overgrown vegetation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
