Sometime before 8 o'clock last night, 28 year-old Marcelo Damien Aguilar was driving his gray Toyota van, accompanied by a 16 year-old and 21 year-old Nelson Pech.

They were heading south, away from the Corozal Freezone, and between miles 87 and 88, he lost control of the vehicle. He tried to avoid a head-on collision with a 10-wheeler truck, but his van slammed into one of its rear wheels. That sent the truck and it's trailer careening out of control and it completely flipped with its wheels ending up in the air off the side of the road.

The van continued in its uncontrolled path, and slammed into another oncoming vehicle, a red Nissan Pick-up, which was being driven by Gabriel Pott. He and his wife suffered injuries from that collision; so did Servando Salazar, the driver of the truck, and also Aguilar's passengers.
