78 year old knocked down and killed at mile 69
An elderly Guatemalan national was the victim of a fatal traffic accident that occurred on the Western Highway on Sunday morning. Seventy-eight year old Celestino Perez Borando was hit by a Toyota Pickup Truck as he walked near mile sixty-nine on the highway. While he frequently walked that road, reports are that Perez stumbled into the path of the vehicle, which was coming from behind. Today, the bloodstains are still on the side of the highway where he succumbed to severe injuries. The pickup truck was reportedly being driven by a retired American National.
