BASSETERRE, S. Kitts – THE Traffic Department is investigating an incident where a vehicle, which was parked on the Joseph N. France General Hospital compound yesterday afternoon (Jul. 29), moved from its parked position and collided with the perimeter fence.
SKNVibes understands from the Traffic Department that the vehicle, P4061, was being operated by Merle Liburd of Stone Fort and she had parked it in the hospital’s yard, leaving her two eight-year-old grandsons therein while she went inside the Hospital to visit a friend.

The vehicle was reportedly parked on a grassy section of the parking lot with its front facing the Island’s Main Road.
