A woman aged 60, who was hurt in the traffic accident on Calea Iesilor St in Chisinau on June 9, died in the hospital. Her husband, who was driving the car, remains in the hospital. The other victim of the accident – a 55-year-old woman – is also in the hospital.

Petru Cravet, spokesman for the Chisinau Emergency Medicine Center, has told IPN that the man suffered leg and clavicle fractures, while the woman aged 55 sustained a clavicle fracture and pulmonary contusion.

The three travelled by a VAZ car. According to the preliminary inquiries, the car moved along Calea Iesilor St and struck a BMW when the driver tried to turn left. As a result of the impact, the BMW was projected into another unit of transport.

Press officer of the Chisinau Police Division Natalia Stati said the driver of the VAZ is most probably guilty because he didn’t give way to the BMW. A criminal case will be started over violation of the traffic rules that led to death. The guilty driver faces up to seven years in jail.
