Injured in quad-bike crash

A YOUNG Belarussian woman was rushed to Nicosia General with head injuries on Tuesday, after her quad-bike crashed into an electricity pole.
According to a police report, the woman had been driving the quad-bike along Nissi Avenue, Ayia Napa, when she lost control of the vehicle. The quad bike swerved to the left, veering first onto the pavement and then into a metal electricity pole.
The young Belarussian was seriously injured and was rushed to Famagusta General, where she was diagnosed with internal haemorrhaging due to a brain injury.
Due to the seriousness of her condition, she was then transported to Nicosia General.
Both the Belarussian and the 21-year-old Russian woman passenger were wearing helmets. An alcohol-level test by the police gave a zero reading.
Famagusta CID are investigating the case.
