Yet another deadly accident over the weekend claimed the lives of three persons, including a foreigner. A car crashed into a truck from the Leche Rica company on the Autovia del Este between the road to Consuelo near the entrance to Melysol melons plantation.

The foreigner was identified as Edward Joseph Gleason, 66, a resident of the Ciudad del Almirante in Santo Domingo. Gleason was from New York.

Also killed in the accident was a woman identified as Ivanna Carmona of 22 years and her 7-month old son Dewar Ivan Urena Carmona, residents at Autopista de San Isidro.

They were all in the KIA sedan that hit the milk truck. The truck turned over and destroyed the guardrails of the highway. The car was totally destroyed.

The accident brings to 28 the number of traffic deaths so far this month. In Villa Mella, the family and neighbors were lamenting the deaths of the seven children killed in Sunday's accident caused, apparently due to reckless driving by the drunken driver of the bus.
