A devastating head-on collision between two vehicles occurred early Wednesday morning on the Gas Auto road in Cancún, resulting in one fatality and two injuries. The incident took place at 1:34 AM when the driver of a red Ford Focus veered into the oncoming lane while traveling from north to south. This resulted in a direct collision with a gray GMC Jimmy heading in the opposite direction.

Both drivers sustained severe injuries from the impact. The driver of the Ford Focus was immediately transported to the General Hospital, while the GMC Jimmy's driver was rushed to IMSS Cobá for medical treatment. Tragically, a passenger in the first vehicle died at the scene of the accident.

Authorities have launched an investigation into the accident to determine its cause. Meanwhile, emergency personnel attended to rescue operations and provided care for those involved in the accident.

Forensic experts were responsible for removing the body from the scene. It was then transferred to the Forensic Medical Service for an autopsy and identification.
