4 Koreans die after plowing into U.S. armored vehicle
4 Koreans die after plowing into U.S. armored vehicle
BY SHIM KYU-SEOK Aug 31 Joongang Daily
A sports utility vehicle (SUV) collided with a U.S. armored vehicle in Pocheon, Gyeonggi, on Sunday evening, killing all four Korean civilians in the SUV.
According to the Pocheon Police Precinct, the car hit the rear of the U.S. armored vehicle at a high rate of speed on a bridge in the vicinity of the Rodriguez Live Fire Complex operated by the U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) at around 9:30 p.m.
The four passengers in the car — two men and two women, all in their 50s — were seriously wounded and transferred to a nearby hospital. All four succumbed to their injuries shortly afterwards.
The U.S. serviceperson driving the armored vehicle, aged 22, received light injuries from the collision.
A subsequent investigation showed the front end of the SUV was damaged beyond recognition, while the continuous track on the right side of the U.S. armored vehicle was also damaged.
