Reports reaching Dominica News Online indicate that one person was seriously injured in an accident which occurred on the bay front in Roseau some time around midnight last night.

According to our source, the driver of the car who spoke to her after the accident, appeared to be seriously injured.

      Don’t you see your name, Pennsylvanian? Hence, it must be concluded you are NO LONGER Dominican. Therefore, you can keep your shame to yourself, outside of Dominica. As for the rest of us who are proud to be in our country we will continue to enjoy her as is.

    Drivers, when are you going to learn to drive cautiously and stick to your side of your road, looking out for oncoming traffic? If you were intoxicated, when will you learn that if you drink do not drive and if you drive do not drink? You have your home to do this.
    Those who do not obey the road regulations will pay a price, sometimes with their life. LIVE AND LEARN and vice versa!

      @ parentareabusers

      I do think that you should change this name. Not all parents are abusers. It all depends on your mentality and what you have concluded. Parents are supposed to be disciplinarians. Some children as you misconstrue this, children obey your parents. It is contained in Holy Scripture.
      God hears all prayers. Ensure that you pray with a humble and loving heart as you worship God and go to church. Only then will God answer your prayers. Otherwise your prayers are in vain.
