Two die in crash near Himatangi
Evening Standard reporter
Two elderly Palmerston North women died and an elderly man and young girl were injured when two cars collided on State Highway 1 near Himatangi on Saturday afternoon.
The dead women were Mrs Ethel Ruth Wood, 81 and her sister in law, Miss Mini (sic) Isabell Wood, 65.
Mrs Wood's husband, Frederick Thomas Wood, the driver of the car, was injured as was their granddaughter, nine year old Marie Ann Wood. Both were said to be in a satisfactory condition in the Palmerston North Hospital today.
Two men in the other car were treated at the scene for minor injuries.
The police said the accident happened about 4.30 p.m. as the Wood's car was travelling towards Palmerston North along the Himatangi Beach Road.
It appeared Mrs Wood was flung from the car when the two collided. She died at the scene while her sister in law died four hours later in the Palmerston North Hospital's intensive care unit.
Late on Saturday afternoon, two Takaka women were killed when the car in which they were travelling and another vehicle collided near Mayfield, 30 kms west of Ashburton.
The dead women were Norma Margaret Francis, a Presbyterian minister, and Amey Francis, her mother.
The third double fatality occurred at Knobs Flat, 65 kms north of Te Anau, early on Saturday morning when a car ran off the road.
The dead pair were Kevin Albert Duncan, 42, and Colleen Margaret Grainger, 34, both of Knobs Flat.
The opening of the Buller rugby season was marred by the death of 17 year old Leslie Alan Coleman.
He died from an injury sustained while making a tackle during a junior fixture between Old Boys and Westport at Westport.
A Buller hospital spokesman said he received a blow from a knee in the upper part of the abdomen and died from a ruptured spleen.
