A woman from Corinth, Gros-Islet, who was killed Monday when her vehicle ran off the road and into the Castries harbour died from drowning, a police official said Wednesday after an autopsy was performed.

“The cause of death was asphyxiation due to drowning,” the senior police official told St. Lucia News Online (SNO).

Tanza Campbell, 30, was declared dead after she was taken to hospital following the accident which occurred sometime after 3 a.m. Monday.

Her Suzuki swift vehicle was about to make a turn at the La Toc roundabout when it ran-off the flat surface and flipped over into the harbour. The vehicle was partially submerged.

Eyewitnesses claim that soon after the vehicle flipped into the river, a female was heard screaming.

Two males went to her rescue, but by the time they pulled out the female passenger and went to Campbell’s assistance she was unresponsive.

Campbell worked at KMZ Solutions Saint Lucia and is the mother of one.
