The driver of a pickup truck ran over two workers at a Copec service center in Providencia, Metropolitan Region, causing the death of one and leaving another in critical condition.

Specifically, the serious incident occurred around noon this Sunday at the intersection of Santa Isabel and Salvador streets.

According to information from Radio Bío Bío, for reasons under investigation, the driver of the pickup truck, a Ford F-150, allegedly loaded gasoline, failed to pay, and, in an attempt to flee the scene, crashed into the Pronto Express store, injuring one worker.

He subsequently ran over the firefighter, who was believed to be the fatal victim, then fled the scene, but was arrested a few blocks from the scene.

Preliminarily, the Carabineros indicated that the driver's alleged intoxication is being investigated. It is expected that further tests will determine this.

However, "he is clearly under the influence of alcohol," said Lieutenant Colonel Cristián Tavra, Deputy Prefect of Services for the Santiago Oriente Prefecture.

Regarding the investigation, he emphasized that "what we know so far is that the truck entered the service station (Copec). What is unclear is whether it actually arrived, whether it refueled, and the circumstances that led to it."

According to press reports, the driver of the truck was allegedly driving without proper footwear, and it was noted that he was wearing sandals.

The Prosecutor's Office instructed the Traffic Accident Investigation Section (SIAT) and the OS9 department to investigate the case to gather evidence and witness statements.

Judge's harsh rebuke of drunk driver who killed two workers: "He killed without shame, he must be removed from circulation." Those were the judge's words at the arraignment of the drunk driver who struck and killed two gas station workers. The defendant's defense team said he was facing personal problems, but the argument was not considered by the court.
