ALCALA, Pangasinan – Six people were hospitalized when the Nissan Frontier Navara they were riding in turned upside down after its driver allegedly saw a “white lady” crossing the street in Barangay Kisikis here before dawn yesterday.
Police quoted Jimmy Lanusa, 39, as saying that he was driving the brand new pick-up truck with five passengers when the “white lady” suddenly crossed the road, prompting him to avoid her.
The truck smashed into a parked mechanized farm tractor, locally known as kuliglig, and then into a mango tree, sending it turning turtle.
The victims were rushed to the Polymedic and Trauma Hospital in Villasis town.
Police merely shrugged off Lanusa’s claim on the “white lady,” saying it was just a tale good for All Souls’ Day.
