Overview
- The 27-year-old Spanish keeper struck an 81-year-old man in a motorized wheelchair on Via Bergamo in Fenegrò on Tuesday morning, and the victim was declared dead at the scene.
- Martínez remained at the site, attempted first aid, cooperated with officers and emergency crews, and was uninjured but visibly distressed, according to local reports.
- Local media report that prosecutors ordered an autopsy, impounded the car and the wheelchair, and subjected Martínez to routine evaluations as investigators assess speed and reconstruct the crash.
