Greece reports multiple traffic accidents and police assault
Several significant incidents were reported across Greece. In Kallithea, a serious motorcycle accident occurred early Saturday morning on Amfitheas Avenue. While initial reports suggested a hit-and-run, police investigations clarified that the 27-year-old female driver and her 37-year-old passenger were both injured after their motorcycle struck a curb and overturned, causing them to be thrown into oncoming traffic and struck by a car. The 27-year-old sustained serious injuries.
In Phthiotis, a 59-year-old driver lost control of a motorhome on the Athens-Lamia national road, causing the vehicle to overturn in the middle of the road. A family, including a 10-year-old girl, was inside, but all occupants escaped without serious injury.
In Patras, a man was arrested after attacking two police officers with a hammer during an attempt to apprehend him. The assailant resisted arrest, causing injuries to the officers and damage to two parked vehicles. Additionally, in Patras, a 64-year-old establishment manager was arrested for selling alcohol to minors.
