fatal car crash

The Palm Beach Gardens Police Department reviewed video surveillance footage of the intersection where Williams' SUV was struck by another vehicle.

The driver, Linda Barson, was injured and her husband, Jerome, died two weeks later.

A police report initially alleged the seven-time grand slam champion was at fault for the incident, though she was not issued with any citations or traffic violations. There was also no evidence she was under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or distracted by an electronic device.

BBC reports that the 35-year-old 2004 Olympic silver medalist suffered head injuries when a taxi he was in with a team-mate crashed into a concrete barrier on Friday.

The German Olympic Committee (DOSB) said Henze had died of his injuries in the presence of his family.

"Words cannot describe what we feel in the team after this terrible loss," said DOSB president Alfons Hormann.

International Olympic Committee president and compatriot Thomas Bach added: "The IOC is mourning the loss of a true Olympian."

A fourth occupant of the car, who is a 21 year old man also of Kolonga, is in a critical condition in hospital.

Tonga’s Deputy Commissioner Pelenatita Vaisuai says a rental car travelling north east along Talasiu Road swerved and hit a coconut tree on the right side of the road.

“The driver, front and right rear passengers died on impact with the fourth passenger who was seated at the left rear, survived but in critical condition in hospital.”

The accident occured a little after midnight.
