The fire service used hydraulic cutting gear to free the Pembroke men after the car had struck a wall, in Happy Dale Road.

Both men received serious injuries. The driver, aged 24, is said to be in a serious condition in intensive care at King Edward Memorial Hospital.

The passenger, aged 24, sustained a broken jaw when the Hyundai Excell car struck the wall.

W.P.c. Claudette Baisden is seeking witnesses to the accident and can be contacted on 295-0011.

A 36-foot yacht, which failed to report its position for a week, arrived safely in Bermuda on Thursday afternoon, Harbour Radio confirmed last night.

The three-men crew on board the American-registered Nefertteti were in good health, a spokesman said.

But Harbour Radio is continuing a look out for a ship that was launched from the Canary Islands as part of the Columbus Anniversary Celebrations.

La Nina 3 is a recreation of Columbus's 18 metre-long, two-masted ship which sailed on a voyage of discovery to America 500 years ago this year.
