The Sint Maarten police force is currently investigating a road accident which occurred on the evening of Tuesday January 9, 2024, around 21 p.m., on the Mullet Bay road.

According to preliminary results of the traffic department's ongoing investigation, a black/dark blue SUV overturned after losing control just after exiting Cupecoy towards Mullet Bay. According to initial information, the driver of the SUV saw another vehicle coming in the opposite direction, on his side of the road. In order to avoid the collision, the driver swerved as far as possible to the left and ended up hitting a rock on the side of the road, which caused the vehicle to roll over.
