During the night from Saturday to Sunday, a dramatic traffic accident occurred in Philippeville, on a section of the N 97 whose speed is limited to 120 km / h. A pedestrian was fatally hit by a car.
The prosecution was notified around 1:15 a.m. The pedestrian was in the middle of the road, dressed in dark, apparently black, clothing. We do not know the speed of the vehicle that hit him, but the limit being set at 120, and the pedestrian not very visible, it would have been impossible to anticipate his presence, explains the magistrate on duty.
The victim, born in 1987, is probably from the area because she was walking home. The motorist, in a state of shock, was accompanied by his two grown children. A car expert has been appointed. The medical examiner was called.
