Re: Dutch Soldier Dies In Car Crash-Aruba

tragic, wonder what the cause of the accident was.
Alcohol, excessive speed and a sense of immortality and invincibility?

Wow, air bag deployed but it looks like he wasn't wearing a seatbelt. Looks like the car rolled or ended up on its side. What a crap car. And here I wanted an impala.

Re: Dutch Soldier Dies In Car Crash-Aruba

The second man who was seriously injured died later at the hospital, so the victims are now two: Casper Hendrikse (24) and his colleague Frank Kerpel (19), both dutch marines.
Looks like speeding (and maybe drunk driving) were the causes, and the driver has been held.

Friday evening just after 10:30 p.m. four people were injured in a car accident at the Mahuma intersection. Police closed off the road. One victim was on the ground and three in the car, of which two were stuck in the car and badly injured. One of the victims passed away during the night.
Eye witnesses said the burgundy car (A-54176) was speeding, the driver lost control and smashed the car into the security barrier at the Mahuma bridge. The passenger side of the car was destroyed. Fire department rescue workers got the two victims that were stuck out of the car. Four ambulances were escorted by police to the hospital. An investigation is ongoing. The Dutch Ministry of Defense also issued a statement on the accident as the men are Dutch Marines stationed at the base in Savaneta. The statement said that one man died and another remains in critical condition.
A set of pics showing the rescue operations can be found here:

Btw, what does the glove worn by the firefighter pointer read?

According to Radio Nederland Wereldomroep (http://www.rnw.nl/caribiana/article/...delijk-ongeluk), the driver (a 24 Y.O. marine), is still held accused of reckless driving resulting in death and driving under the influence of alcohol: he's been held "in order not to hinder the investigation" and "to prevent him from leaving the Netherlands". Several reported that the Marines were in a party and had been drinking (in the last photo, the bodies being carried to the airport).
