A 46-year-old woman died this Thursday night after being run over by a car on the A-2 highway. The accident occurred in the municipality of Bell-lloc d"Urgell, specifically at kilometer marker 474, heading towards Mollerussa. The victim was identified as E.C.M. and was a resident of Lleida.
The Mossos d"Esquadra received the notice of the events at 10:10 PM. Immediately, two patrols of the police force were activated and moved to the location to act in the face of the emergency. The exact causes that provoked the impact against the pedestrian remain under investigation by the agents.
Emergency deployment and provisional balance
The response of the emergency services included the mobilization of four units from the Medical Emergency System (SEM) to the accident area. The health personnel attended to the woman at the scene before managing the tasks corresponding to the assistance and investigation of the incident.
With this new tragedy, the provisional balance of the Catalan Traffic Service reflects 33 people deceased on Catalan roads so far this year. This number includes different types of road users, including drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.
Preliminary data indicate that 5 of these fatalities are pedestrians, a figure that highlights the vulnerability of those traveling on foot. Authorities recall that road safety is a constant priority and that prevention efforts are ongoing.
