Police say the 25-year-old was a passenger of a vehicle bound for Korolevu in Navosa on Wednesday night that was involved in an alleged roadside crash.

Fiji Police spokeswoman Ana Naisoro said the driver had allegedly lost control of the vehicle causing it to veer off the road and ended up in a drain.
