As a result of the impact, two people who were on the motorcycle at that time were injured, it is about its driver who was seriously injured and a 34-year-old woman. The medical crews from SMURD Galati and from the Galati County Ambulance Service who intervened on the scene performed resuscitation maneuvers on the injured man, after which he was transported to the hospital in an unconscious state.

Unfortunately, despite the efforts of the medical staff, the 41-year-old policeman died at the hospital. In the case, the prosecution will also be extended for the crime of manslaughter.

The passenger on the motorcycle was also taken to the hospital, in order to receive medical care. The driver has a valid driver’s license, and when tested with the breathalyzer, the result was negative.
