Overview
- On June 15 in Palma’s Pere Garau, a 30-year-old Bolivian driver veered into a stationary car on Joan Bauzà, causing a side-swipe collision
- The victim pursued the vehicle to Plaza de las Columnas, honking to force it to stop before alerting Policía Local de Palma
- A UVAC team conducted breathalyzer tests that registered his alcohol level at 1.55 mg/l, six times Spain’s 0.25 mg/l legal limit
- No injuries were reported at the scene, but the excessive reading triggered an investigation for a presumed crime against road safety
- Authorities have formally summoned the driver to appear before judicial authorities on criminal road-safety charges
