A simple traffic disagreement escalated into a violent altercation that left one man hospitalized with a skull fracture. It all unfolded on a busy street corner in Mar del Plata, where tempers flared between a truck driver and the driver of a private car.
The confrontation began innocently enough as the two vehicles nearly collided after a sudden maneuver by the truck. Swerving to avoid an accident, the other driver found himself embroiled in a heated exchange with the truck driver at the intersection of Peralta Ramos Avenue and Rosales Street.
Just when it seemed like things might cool down, the situation took a terrifying turn. The enraged trucker decided to pursue his adversary, eventually catching up with him as he parked near Antártida Argentina Avenue. What followed was nothing short of barbaric – witnesses described how the truck driver pulled out an iron rod and viciously attacked his opponent, leaving him battered on the pavement.
Andrés, 46 years old, bore the brunt of this senseless aggression. Despite managing to get back on his feet initially, he soon required urgent medical attention. Doctors at the hospital confirmed what was feared – Andrés had suffered a fractured skull as a result of the brutal assault and had to be admitted for further treatment.
Captured by a nearby home security camera, footage from Antártida Argentina Avenue and Mario Bravo Street painted a grim picture of unchecked violence. While investigators work diligently to trace both vehicles’ movements leading up to the attack, one thing remains crystal clear – the sheer brutality exhibited by the truck driver during this disturbing incident.
“He honked his horn; that’s all he did. The guy gestured behind his window for a fight; they exchanged insults. It was just road rage,”
shared a relative of Andrés from outside the hospital. Recounting how Andrés had been tailed all the way home before being ambushed by his assailant right outside their residence.
Recounting further:
“It was horrific; despite doctors noting severe skull damage, they can’t believe there are no lasting effects. He could have been killed; he has a frontal fracture.”
The raw emotions surrounding this event were palpable as bystanders struggled to comprehend how such trivial origins led to such devastating consequences.
