WILLEMSTAD – Around 2 a.m., a car struck a cyclist severely and then fled the scene. The police station received a notification that near the Marshé di Pruga business on Winston Churchillweg, at the intersection with Borinquenweg, a car collided with an elderly man riding a bicycle. Upon the arrival of the authorities and the ambulance, it was observed that the victim had fractured legs and arms, as well as a large wound on the head. Passersby on the mentioned road found the man lying on the street and called the police. The man was urgently transported to the CMC for further treatment. This is another case of a cyclist becoming a victim when a car flees the scene. Some time ago, there were two similar cases where the victims lost their lives, and so far, the perpetrators of the accidents have not been found. The only evidence left in this case is the skid marks and the broken glass from the car. The police are also investigating this case.
