Man crushed by truck at vehicle repair shop in North Corfu
CORFU. The man did not survive.
Another tragedy occurred yesterday evening at around 16:30 at a car repair shop on the road from Velonades to Agrafous, below the village of Kopsohilades. The 58-year-old mechanic, was literally crushed by a truck under which he had gone to inspect.
An ambulance from EKAB was immediately notified, but since a private ambulance from a local clinic was closer, he was taken to hospital with that. He was seriously injured, and despite persistent efforts during the transfer and at the hospital's Emergency Department, sadly, he did not make it. Shortly after 20:00, he took his last breath. He was the father of three children and lived in the area, which has been deeply shaken by the incident.
Enimerosi expresses its condolences to his family, loved ones, and friends.
