KUCHING: Two women lost their lives in a road accident at Mile 11 Jalan Kuching-Serian Road early yesterday morning after the motorcycle they were travelling on collided with a car.
One of the deceased was identified as Audrey Kymberlee Patrick, 28, of Kampung Sungai Duuh, Siburan. The identity of the pillion rider had yet to be determined.
State Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department deputy chief DSP Bingkok John said the incident took place around 4.15am when both women were travelling in the direction of the city.
