Unforeseen circumstances led the vehicle to veer off course, ultimately crashing against the railings at the pedestrian crossing. Eyewitness footage obtained by <strong>Infobae<\/strong> revealed a vehicle severely damaged; specifically, the driver&#8217;s side door was crumpled, and shattered glass littered the ground.<\/p>\n<p>According to sources from <strong>SAME<\/strong>, the couple, who were adults, faced dire consequences from the crash. While the woman was rushed to a hospital due to head injuries, <strong>the man tragically succumbed<\/strong> to his injuries at the scene. <\/p>\n<p>This distressing event unfolded near Urquiza station, situated between the neighborhoods of <strong>Chacarita<\/strong> and <strong>Villa Ort\u00fazar<\/strong>, close to a local cemetery.
