Road accident inquest resumes

The inquest into the death of a woman who suffered fatal injuries when the car she was driving crashed in Governor's Road, Onchan resumes today.

Erika Francesca Szaniszlo died on January 24, after the vehicle went out of control and hit a wall at about 6.30am.

When the inquest opened, on February 2, a pathology report showed Miss Szaniszlo was over the legal drink-drive limit, and there was no evidence she was wearing a seatbelt.

Her body has since been taken back to Stockport for her funeral.

Also at Douglas courthouse today, inquests into the deaths of former brewery boss Eddie Ardern and Roy Frederick Thomas will be opened and adjourned.
