Grisly videos show a man burning alive to his death following a collision with a truck in Venezuela.
“In a devastating incident on Friday night, a flatbed truck collided with a van a few meters from the Clínica Humana at the intersection of Avenida Guayana and Avenida Gumilla in San Félix.
The victim was identified as Leomal Guzmán, a member of the National Guard, and was assigned to the Urban Security and Public Order Detachment of zone command 62.
Both vehicles burst into flames after the impact. The collision occurred when one of the drivers was speeding along Guayana Avenue towards Las Delicias, without noticing the traffic light, which caused the catastrophic crash.
First responders from the Caroní Fire Department arrived at the scene, but it was too late, the flames had consumed the vehicles.
The driver of the truck managed to escape in time. Eyewitnesses reported that the truck was carrying a 20-liter fuel container connected to the carburetor with a hose, which probably contributed to the explosion after the impact between the two vehicles.
Authorities urge all drivers to use caution on the roads, obey traffic signs and avoid dangerous modifications to their vehicles that could lead to such catastrophic results.”
