**Interview with Paulina Garcia, a Witness to the Incident in Piraeus**
**Interviewer:** Thank you for joining us today, Paulina. You were in Piraeus on Tuesday morning when this shocking incident occurred. Can you tell us what you witnessed?
**Paulina Garcia:** Thank you for having me. It was a typical morning when I heard a commotion on the street. I turned around and saw a truck driving away, and I immediately realized something was wrong. I saw an elderly man being dragged along the asphalt; it was horrifying.
**Interviewer:** That sounds terrifying. How did the people around you react?
**Paulina Garcia:** There was a lot of panic. Some people shouted for the driver to stop, while others rushed to help the man. It all happened so quickly; it felt surreal. I could see that the man was in distress, and I could hear his cries for help.
**Interviewer:** Were emergency services called to the scene?
**Paulina Garcia:** Yes, several people called for an ambulance immediately. It seemed to take a while, but eventually, paramedics arrived and took over. They were very professional and worked quickly to assess the man’s injuries.
**Interviewer:** Have you heard anything about the man’s condition since the incident?
**Paulina Garcia:** I haven’t heard any updates directly, but I hope he is okay. It’s a reminder of how quickly things can change in an instant.
**Interviewer:** What do you think could have been done to prevent such an incident?
