Doctor killed in car crash
A doctor died after he lost control of his car, which rammed a lamppost on the EDSA flyover along Roxas Boulevard in Pasay City early yesterday.
Dr. Jose Javier Suntay, an orthopedic surgeon at the Perpetual Help Rizal Medical Center in Las Piñas City and at the Makati Medical Center, tried to avoid hitting an early warning device along the flyover but ended up smashing into the lamppost at around 2:20 a.m., police said.
Suntay was pinned inside the car, a Toyota Corolla (PNE-838). Concerned residents rushed him to the San Juan de Dios Hospital but he died two hours after the crash.
The Pasay Traffic Police said they are conducting a follow-up investigation on the incident. – Rhodina Villanueva
