An ice cream shop operator has died following a late-night motor vehicle collision on King Street in downtown Kingston.
The victim, Tamara Manning of Fletcher’s Land, was reportedly sitting on the sidewalk outside her business around 10:00 p.m. when two vehicles—a Toyota Probox and a Toyota Mark X—collided. CCTV footage allegedly shows one vehicle attempting to overtake the other before impact.
Police say the Mark X then left the roadway and struck Manning. She was rushed to the hospital but later succumbed to her injuries.
The Kingston Central Police have launched an investigation and are reviewing surveillance footage while collecting witness statements.
Authorities are urging motorists to drive responsibly, as investigations continue into another fatal crash on Kingston’s busy streets.
