鈥淧olice have identified the three occupants inside the vehicle who were assisted out of the wreckage by witnesses on scene鈥� Const. Lesley Smith said in a press release. 鈥淣one of the occupants aged 25, 32 and 32 were wearing seat belts and miraculously did not suffer any life threatening injuries. It was also extremely lucky that no one else was involved in the collision as that location is highly populated with motor vehicle traffic and pedestrians.鈥�
Police are still trying to determine which occupant was operating the motor vehicle. Their investigation remains ongoing.
