Driver Arrested After High‑Speed Chase Ends in Crash

A man is in custody following a high‑speed chase that ended in a collision on Friday morning, according to the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force.

Police reported that at about 11:20 a.m., two Road Safety and Traffic Investigation officers were responding to a separate collision near the Vieux Fort Comprehensive Secondary School when they observed a white Toyota Corolla overtaking several vehicles at high speed along the left verge.

Despite being ordered to stop, the driver continued recklessly. Officers pursued the vehicle and, upon reaching the junction of La Ressource Highroad and St Jude Highroad, discovered that the car had crashed into another vehicle.

Both vehicles sustained extensive damage, though no injuries were reported. Subsequent investigations revealed that the driver was operating without a valid licence. The vehicle was uninsured, and the licence plate affixed to it did not belong to the car.

The suspect was arrested and taken to the Vieux Fort Police Station, where charges are expected to follow.
