Overview
- An 81-year-old man in a wheelchair died at the scene despite resuscitation efforts following the Tuesday morning crash between Como and Milan.
- Foot Mercato reports the incident occurred around 9:30 a.m. on via Bergamo in Fenegro as Martinez was driving to Inter training.
- Martinez was described as in shock and underwent medical checks, with early reports saying alcohol and drug tests were negative and no speeding was indicated.
- Investigators seized the player's phone as part of standard procedures while assessing witness statements suggesting the victim abruptly changed direction, a point that remains under review.
