A 57-year-old man died on Tuesday night after being hit by a car on the LZ-2 road, at the entrance to the airport.

At around 10:30 p.m., the Coordinating Center for Emergencies and Security (CECOES) 1-1-2 of the Government of the Canary Islands received an alert about the incident, and a medicalized ambulance and another basic life support ambulance from the Canary Emergency Service (SUC) and Civil Guard officers were dispatched to the scene.

The medical personnel assessed the injured person who had been run over, who was in cardiorespiratory arrest. After several attempts to recover him, he finally presented injuries incompatible with life and his death was confirmed. The Civil Guard instructed the corresponding proceedings.
