Around six-thirty this morning, five people traveling in a minibus that runs from San Martín to the Ex Cuartel Market were injured when the public-transport vehicle crashed into a tow truck.

The incident occurred on the Pan-American Highway near ex vifrío, when the minibus driver was unable to stop the vehicle, crashing into the rear of a tow truck traveling from east to west.

Five passengers sustained injuries in the road accident; one of them, who was traveling in the front of the minibus, became trapped and was freed by a Comandos de Salvamento de El Salvador rescuer from the Ilopango unit.

The victims were taken to the Ilopango Social Security Hospital and San Bartolo National Hospital by Comandos de Salvamento de El Salvador rescuers.
