A 19-year-old female rider was killed and her companion was injured after a mixer truck ran over them at the boundary of Barangay Lidong, Sto. Domingo, and Barangay Padang, Legazpi City in Albay.

According to the police, the victims were traveling on a motorcycle when they lost control of the vehicle upon reaching a bridge due to the uneven road surface.

The motorcycle collided with a post and the rider fell onto the road.

The mixer truck following them could not avoid hitting the victims, resulting in the rider getting run over.

“Bale duman kaya sa pinangyarihan medyo palaog ka po sa boundary, minasadit an tinampo tapos duman sa gilid na parte sa outer lane medyo maburubaybay duman kaya may posibilidad na [nag-]swerve sinda duman pa sa enotan bago pa magboundary," PCMS Nolan Balanta, Chief Investigator of Sto. Domingo Police Municipal Station (PMS), said.

The truck driver surrendered to authorities and is now facing charges of reckless imprudence resulting in homicide.
