A 55-year-old man died on Saturday after the car he was driving hit a wooden pole in Pyrgos, Limassol district.
He was driving along Agias Marinas Street at around 11.50am when the car veered slightly to the left and hit a wooden Cyta pole, where it came to a stop. Police are investigating how it happened.
He was injured and taken to a private hospital in Limassol, where he died shortly before 2pm despite doctors’ efforts.
Officers from Limassol traffic police and Moni police station examined the scene. Initial findings show he was not wearing a seatbelt.
