A Move It motorcycle taxi driver was killed after being run over by a speeding dump truck recently in Ermita, Manila.
The victim, 33, a native of Poblacion, Lapuyan, Zamboanga del Sur, was pinned under the truck and declared dead on the spot.
The truck driver, now under the custody of the Manila District Traffic and Enforcement Unit (MDTEU), was identified as Johnny Wilson Timpug, 38, a resident of Pabanlag, Floridablanca, Pampanga.
According to a report from the Vehicle Traffic Investigation Section of the MDTEU, the accident occurred along the southbound lane of Roxas Boulevard near the corner of Remedios Street, Ermita.
Investigators learned that Agustines was driving his Honda Click motorcycle along Roxas Boulevard’s southbound lane when his vehicle was hit by a Toyota Avanza driven by Edmar Morales, who was also moving in the same direction.
Due to the strong impact, Agustines lost control of his motorcycle and fell onto the concrete road, where the approaching dump truck ran over and pinned him, causing his instant death.
