A MAN killed in a traffic accident in Freeport on Saturday has been identified as 37-year-old Gregory Cartwright, of Pioneer’s Loop, Freeport.

Mr. Cartwright was driving a 2004 green Toyota Corolla that was involved in an accident with a 1999 white Lincoln limousine around 3pm on Saturday on Coral Road, near the junction of Nansen Avenue, according to Grand Bahama police. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Mr. Cartwright was single and worked at Island Seas Resort. He celebrated his birthday earlier this month and was planning to go back to the College of the Bahamas to pursue his Bachelor’s degree, according to friends. He had graduated with an associate degree a year ago.

Four passengers in the Lincoln were also injured and taken to the Rand Memorial Hospital for medical attention.

Police are investigating the accident, which is the fifth traffic fatality in Grand Bahama this year.
