Appeal for witnesses to double fatality crash

The Sunshine Coast Forensic Crash Unit are continuing investigations into a single vehicle crash at Pacific Paradise yesterday in which two people tragically died.

“Preliminary information indicates a vehicle was travelling southbound along David Low Way at around 7am when it left the roadway and collided with a tree,” Queensland Police said in a statement this afternoon.

Detectives are investigating whether this was a deliberate act by the driver, with police appealing for anyone who witnessed the crash to contact them.

Police would also like to speak to anyone who saw the vehicle – a 2016 white Nissan Qashqai SUV – driving in the area prior to the crash, as well as any motorists with relevant dashcam footage of the vehicle.

“The two occupants of the vehicle, the 68-year-old female passenger and 69-year-old male driver were entrapped for a period of time before being extricated and transported to Sunshine Coast University Hospital, where they passed away.”

Police say the woman and man, both from the Sunshine Coast, were known to each.
