According to Kasibu Police Senior Master Sergeant Prudencio Domingo who is the chief investigator of the incident, the impact was strong causing the mechanic to get caught under the van. He was dragged by the vehicle taking three (3) meters from the initial point.
Based on the report, the investigation showed that the driver of the AUV fell asleep so he hit the van that was parked on the side of the road. The mechanic was rushed to the hospital but he was declared dead on arrival. He incurred several wounds from the accident.
The driver of the AUV is safe. Charges were filed against him over the incident that took the life of a 40-year-old mechanic.
