PUP Rep Comments On Accident
posted (April 6, 2016)
For the past few days, we've been reporting on Trial Farm Resident Julia Arana, mother of elite cyclist Nissan Arana, who was knocked down by the PUP's Jose Mai on Friday night. She remains hospitalized, and her family is hoping that she will make a full recovery.

Jose Mai, who was driving a Toyota Hilux, has not issued any comment on the accident. So today, when he met him exiting the PUP meeting at Independence Hall, we wanted to ask him about the suggestion from the Arana family that he was driving too fast. Well, when we approached him, he told us that he is still unable to speak at this time:

Hon. Jose Mai - Knocked down Julia Arana

"All I can tell you that I'm hoping that she recovers and my attorney will instruct me exactly when to speak to the media and what to say. Right now the most important thing to me is the health of the lady. I'm hoping and praying for her speedy recovery."

Daniel Ortiz

"Are you committing that you will give us the press comment at some time?"

"I will as soon as the time is right."

We'll have an update from the Arana family tomorrow.
