A 19-year-old woman died in an early morning road accident in Lautoka.
Police says the victim was one of four passengers travelling in a vehicle driven by a 24-year-old along the Queens Road near Navutu, when it is alleged that the driver lost control, causing their vehicle to veer off the road and crash into a post.
They say the victim died at the scene while the suspect and three others were conveyed to the Lautoka Aspen Hospital where they are admitted in serious condition.
Investigations continue.
The national road death toll currently stands at 42 compared to 63 for the same period last year.
