Overview
- A trailer overturned and caught fire on the A-33 near Villena, and firefighters needed a backhoe to remove cargo before they could fully extinguish the blaze.
- Local reports say the driver of the A-33 truck died at the scene and the overturned vehicle blocked most of the carriageway, causing heavy traffic disruption.
- On the A-3 at Arganda del Rey a truck carrying porcelain struck a heavy maintenance vehicle and then hit a road-painting machine, killing the 63-year-old truck driver.
- Emergency medical teams stabilized the operator of the painting machine and transferred him to Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón in serious condition.
- The Guardia Civil has taken charge of the A-3 investigation and emergency services continue clearance and scene-management work at both crash sites.
