Comandos de Salvamento rescuers from the Chinameca section responded this afternoon to a traffic accident that left two people injured.

The traffic accident occurred on the road leading from Santiago de María to San Buena Ventura, where the driver of a pickup truck attempted to overtake another vehicle and collided head-on with a sedan traveling in the opposite direction.

The pickup truck driver tried to avoid the collision and lost control, crashing into the sedan and subsequently into a tree, which caused it to overturn on the roadway.

The Comandos de Salvamento volunteers from Chinameca assisted the pickup truck driver, who was identified as José Antonio Amaya Portillo, 49, and José Luis Medrano, 38, who was accompanying Amaya Portillo.

Both victims were taken to Nueva Guadalupe Hospital to receive medical attention for their injuries.
