Trailer crushes tricycle with elderly man on board in Ticul

A truck driver ran into a tricycle with an elderly man on board in the streets of Ticul. Miraculously, the incident did not end in a tragedy.

The eighteen-wheeler was traveling on 19th Street, between 24th and 22nd, from east to west, and before reaching the corner with 26th Street he tried to overtake a tricyclist who was carrying corn in containers.

The driver did not measure his distance well and partially crushed the tricycle, whose driver was injured and trapped between the trailer and an old model Volkswagen Beetle parked on that road.

Municipal police arrived at the scene and supported the injured person in his transfer to the health center in a Red Cross ambulance. He was reported as stable.

The place was cordoned off for the pertinent investigations and the determination of responsibilities.
