Argentine tourist dies in Punta Cana motorcycle accident
An Argentine tourist, identified as 30-year-old Roberto Farías García, died following a traffic accident on the Boulevard Turístico Frank Rainieri in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.
Preliminary reports indicate the accident occurred near the intersection of Domingo Maíz. The incident involved a motorcycle and a truck carrying caliche. It is believed the truck performed a sudden maneuver, forcing Farías García to brake abruptly. This caused him to lose control, fall onto the pavement, and be run over by the truck's rear tires.
Emergency units and DIGESETT agents responded to the scene. The victim's body was transported to the Regional Institute of Forensic Sciences (INACIF) in San Pedro de Macorís for an autopsy. Following the medical examination, his family intends to arrange for his repatriation to Argentina. Authorities are currently conducting an investigation to determine the legal responsibilities of the driver involved.
