Woman dies in hospital 10 days after crash

By Jesse Graham

A HEALESVILLE woman who was placed into a medically-induced coma after her car plunged into a dam on 26 November has died in hospital.
Dr Kerry Arrow, 36, was critically-injured when the car she was a passenger in left a dirt driveway on a Margaret Road property in Healesville and veered into a dam.
The driver, Dr Arrow’s 32-year-old husband, was able to get out of the car and pull her to safety – she was then flown to hospital in a critical condition and placed in a medically-induced coma.
Victoria Police announced that Dr Arrow died in hospital on Tuesday 6 December.
Major Collision Investigation Unit detectives attended the scene of the crash to investigate, and a Victoria Police spokesperson said police will prepare a report for the coroner, and continue their investigation.
