In September this year, two British nationals were killed, with another left fighting for their life, after the vehicle they were travelling in smashed into a speedboat belonging to suspected drug traffickers. During the collision, the speedboat came off a trailer while it was being driven along a dual carriageway.
The driver of the vehicle, which had been carrying the suspect vessel on a trailer, fled the scene and a manhunt was launched to track him down. A Civil Guard spokesman confirmed the pair’s nationalities, saying both they and the critically injured victim “were British men aged 47 to 54”. The spokesman said: “The accident happened around 9.
30pm last night on the RM-12 around the El Algar municipality. A semi-rigid boat on board a trailer a vehicle was pulling came off and ended on the road across both lanes. “A car travelling behind it with three British men inside aged between 47 and 54 smashed into the vessel.
Two of those people died and another, who was the driver, was critically injured. Eight other people travelling in six vehicles behind them also crashed into the boat and were injured. “The driver of the vehicle that was travelling with the speed boat on the trailer fled the scene.
He has yet to be arrested. The boat he was carrying that ended up on the dual-carriageway has all the characteristics of a so-called ‘narco lancha’ involved in drug trafficking and an investigation is ongoing.”.
