Re: Cyclist Hit from Behind
The man who traveled by bike was hospitalized with polytrauma and brain damage. Miguel Ivanovich, 28, had more than four times as much alcohol in his blood when he ran over Sebastian Devo, a 35-year-old cyclist who is fighting for his life at the Sanatorium. The defendant will testify before the courts this afternoon, at 6:30 am, after being charged with attempted murder. "I will seek release because it is a crime," his lawyer, Jose Novelo, told the media. The attorney assured that his client "has no predecessor" and that, according to him, he should be free until convicted. Eight blocks after running over the victim and after his escape, Ivanovic crashed in a car waiting for the traffic light. Within the investigation, he was immediately arrested by the City Police after checking that he had 2.4 grams of alcohol, when the limit was 0.5 grams per liter of blood for private drivers and 0 for Professional drivers and beginners. Who is Miguel Ivanovich? He is part of the Gypsy community and is committed to buying and selling shitty cars. His violations, in any case, are not new. Ivanovich has records of driving from several areas and accumulates 22 fines totaling 140 thousand pesos. Many expedite roads and highways in the city, and others for disrespecting traffic regulations and crossing the low barriers in Hurlingham. In total, the total amount is 54,570 dollars in Capital and 83,350 in the province, according to public records that can be consulted online and permits from four different areas of the city of Buenos Aires, the province and Cordoba. He has a registered address in Saavedra, but lives in Floresta. "He was okay, he was not in the right mind; he was drunk he was not in his true mind," his lawyer said. On fines, he said his client "bought the car two months ago and had already come in with fines". After fleeing and crashing, the man was transferred to the hospital with police custody, because they could not wake him up. Later on he was transfered to the Central Office for identification of the city prosecutor's office and arrested in the mayor's office at the communal police station 6. The accident The incident occurred at 6 o'clock in the morning, when Ivanovic, the driver of the Gray Volkswagon Gol, hit Sebastian, who drove his mountain bike. The victim was launched and hit his head against a tree. He has more fractures and damage to the brain as a result of the impact. The victim is a father of two children, aged 7 and 3, and works at a service station near the scene of the accident. He travels every day on his bike to work because "gasoline is expensive and he wants to exercise," his wife told the media. |
