Two-month-old unscathed in Muar car crash that killed four in her family
|
BABY girl Jolene Bong is all alone now, after a horrific crash along Malaysia’s North-South Highway yesterday left her an orphan.The two-month-old survived virtually unscathed after she was flung out of the family car which was wrecked totally in the accident near Muar, Johor.
Her mother, grandmother and two-year-old brother died on the spot. Her father, Mr Bong Kwang Hong, 37, died in hospital. Nurses at the Tangkak hospital near Muar looked after Jolene until three of her uncles and her paternal grandmother arrived from Singapore. The Bongs lived in a Simei condominium. Police believe Mr Bong, who runs a travel agency and was driving, lost control of his seven-seater Mitsubishi Grandis which went off the road, crashed into two trees and ripped open. |
