Car Crash Claims One Life, Injures Two Others in Manouba
Tragic Accident Occurs in Canal du Nord
A devastating car crash occurred on Wednesday, resulting in the death of one person and injuries to two others. The incident took place in the Canal du Nord, near the Béjaoua road, adjacent to the Manouba University complex.
Emergency Services Respond Promptly
According to the Regional Directorate of Civil Protection, emergency responders arrived on the scene around 8:00 am, shortly after being alerted to the accident. The vehicle, carrying three passengers, skidded out of control before coming to a stop in the canal.
Rescue Efforts Underway
Rescue teams successfully extracted the two surviving passengers, who were transported to the hospital for medical attention. The body of a deceased adult male was recovered from the canal.
Vehicle Extraction and Investigation
Civil protection teams used specialized equipment to extract the vehicle from the canal. Preliminary investigations suggest that the accident was caused by the driver losing control of the vehicle after it skidded, resulting in the vehicle's plunge into the canal and the subsequent drowning of one occupant.
Further Investigation and Autopsy
The Manouba Public Prosecutor's Office conducted the necessary investigations and ordered the transfer of the deceased person's body to the Tunis Forensic Medicine Department for further examination.
