Bethany Ovenden Gumm Picture: FAMILY/WILTSHIRE POLICE READERS of the Wiltshire Times and Gazette & Herald have paid their respects and left their condolences for the family of the young Westbury woman, Bethany Ovenden Gumm, 18, who died in a tragic car accident. The driver, a 19-year-old man, was also seriously injured and taken to Southmead Hospital where he remains at this time. The two remaining passengers sustained injuries and one, an 18-year-old woman, was taken to Southmead while the other, a 17-year-old girl, was taken to Royal United Hospitals in Bath. The accident happened in The Mead at Westbury late on Friday evening.
Nativity characters were damaged in some of the displays and floodlights, electrical plugs and items from their costumes stolen and many comments online expressed their sympathy towards organisers Geoff and Harriet Heard. You said: Kelly Elizabeth Hale: “So upsetting to see this. Luckily we managed to get around to see them all. The Sainsburys one was being fixed while we were there and another had the sign missing. The displays where amazing and my daughter had fun seeing them all.” Trowbridge Nativity Trail trashed Deb Samways: “Always some little shits to spoil it for others... Hope they get found out and made to pay for the replacement or just fined for the inconvenience.”
