Diether Ocampo recovering after SUV hits truck in Makati

Actor Diether Ocampo is recovering in the hospital after suffering injuries from a vehicular accident in Makati City on Friday morning.

According to Darlene Cay’s report on “24 Oras”, Star Magic said Ocampo is recovering in the hospital after he suffered injuries in the collision.

In a statement, Star Magic thanked those who prayed for the actor.

The car’s front end was wrecked after it collided with the garbage truck, which was parked while its personnel collected trash on the service road of Osmeña Highway southbound lane.

"Nagdadakot po kasi kami dito sir, siya, bumubulusok. Pagbangga niya riyan, nagulat na lang kami. Napatakbo pa nga ako kasi akala ko anong nangyari. Nakita ko na lang ho na bumangga na siya riyan,” garbage collector Nilo Villanueva said.

(We're collecting garbage, when his vehicle collided, we were just shocked. I even ran because of the incident.)

Authorities said no other person was injured during the incident, which remains under investigation. —Richa Noriega/NB, GMA News
