Fatal road accidents in Mexico
Overview
A series of fatal traffic accidents in Mexico has resulted in multiple casualties, including several police officers.
In early October, two separate incidents occurred in Mexico. In Santa Catarina, a driver fell asleep at the wheel, causing a collision that injured three people, including two children. In Escobedo, a rollover accident on the Anillo Periférico killed three members of the Fuerza Civil police force after their vehicle struck a central median.
By mid-October, another major accident was reported on the La Pera-Cuautla highway in Morelos. An official police vehicle collided near a highway bridge, causing officers to be thrown from the vehicle. The Morelos Secretariat of Public Security and Citizen Protection confirmed that four officers died and four others were hospitalized in critical condition. Investigations into the mechanical circumstances of the Morelos crash are ongoing.
