Four people, two adults and two minors, died on Sunday afternoon in a traffic accident on a provincial road in the municipality of Malva, in the province of Zamora, according to the Castilla y León emergency service 112.
The crash occurred at around 13:45 when the vehicle left the road at kilometre 16 of the ZA-P-2314 and collided with a concrete culvert. Emergency medical services were dispatched after a person called 112 to report that three people were injured and trapped inside a car. Medical teams sent to the scene, including a medicalised helicopter, later confirmed that all four occupants of the vehicle had died.
Sources from the local council and the Guardia Civil told EFE that the accident took place on a straight stretch of the road and that the cause of the vehicle leaving the road is still unknown.
The identities of the four people travelling in the car have not been established. Residents of Malva, a village of around 90 inhabitants, told EFE that the victims were not from their locality, nor have they been identified as residents of Aspariegos, which has some 220 inhabitants. The crash happened on the section of road linking the two villages, located between the alfoz of Toro and the Tierra del Pan district of Zamora.
