Costa Maya, Q.R. — The driver of a truck was killed Friday night in a single-vehicle Costa Maya highway accident. His passenger was seriously injured. Transit agents were requested at the scene along a section of highway heading toward Tulum.
Police found the rolled vehicle approximately three kilometers from the entrance to the Tulum bypass. On the road were two men. One was pronounced at the scene. The second man from the Nissan was transferred to Felipe Carrillo Puerto hospital.
