MANILA — The driver of a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) died on the spot on Monday after his vehicle hit a parked trailer truck on the inner lane of M. Lopez Boulevard in Tondo, Manila.

The incident was captured by a CCTV camera of Barangay 39 Zone 3, District 1 in Tondo.

Based in the footage, around 7:59 in the morning, the MPV was seen speeding coming from Zaragoza Street when it hit the trailer truck.

Manila Police District (MPD) spokesperson PMaj. Philipp Ines told ABS-CBN News that the male driver of the MPV died immediately.

"Nagkaroon ng vehicular accident dito sa kahabaan ng Mel Lopez sa Manila kung saan yung isang multi-purpose vehicle bumangga sa isang truck at yung driver nitong MPV ay nasawi at yung driver naman ng truck ay nasa kostodiya ng Manila Traffic Enforcement Unit," Ines said.

"Nakita natin na mabilis yung takbo ng bumangga. Ongoing pa yung pag-iimbestiga at tinitingnan natin yung pananagutang nung driver nung truck kung meron mang pananagutan. Nakita naman natin binangga siya rito habang nakaparada," Ines added.

Ines said the victim's last known address was in Sampaloc, Manila while the truck driver is from Valenzuela City.

He said investigators are looking into other possibilities, including a sleepy or drunk MPV driver.

"Sa ngayon tinitingnan natin dun sa proseso ng pag-iimbestiga kung nakatulog o maaaring nakainom siya. Malaaman lamang yan dun sa resulta ng autopsy dito sa subject natin," Ines said.
