00:00Before the witness, a senior citizen was killed after he was hit by a truck in Pasig City.
00:08The victim was crossing the road to the hospital for a check-up.
00:12Witness, Niko Wahe, exclusive.
00:19In the CCTV footage, this woman was crossing at 3.30 pm
00:24at the intersection of Sirimundo Avenue, Barangay Maybunga, Pasig City.
00:28All of a sudden, the vehicles rushed forward.
00:31In front of a truck, it was rolled over and hit.
00:35The truck stopped because it felt like someone was hitting it.
00:38Dead on the spot is a 62-year-old victim, a teacher.
00:43Multiple physical injuries, a head injury.
00:48But the most serious one is the one in Big Dead because that's where he was trapped.
00:54He was trapped in the beam portion of the vehicle.
00:59According to the driver of the truck who was held by the Pasig Police,
01:02he did not see the victim crossing.
01:05When I turned around, I did not notice that there was a person here.
01:08I just shouted that there was a person here.
01:10When I pulled over, I saw that there was a person underneath.
01:16According to the Pasig Police, the victim was hit by a traffic light
01:20and was taken to the nearest hospital for a check-up.
01:23He was taken to the hospital.
01:25As we can see, when the first passenger of the jeep moved,
01:32the truck moved as well.
01:35He did not notice the victim crossing.
01:40But the driver should have seen the victim crossing.
01:44This truck was the one that hit the victim.
01:48Usually, this part of the truck is the blind side for the drivers.
01:53But because there's a mirror, like what we call a ball mirror,
01:56the truck driver should have seen someone crossing in front of his truck.
02:01According to the Pasig Police, it's possible that the driver of the truck did not look at the ball mirror
02:07and was more focused on the traffic light that was greenlighted.
02:11That's why he did not see the victim and was hit by the truck.
02:14Because of the inattentive driving, it's a reckless imprudence.
02:19There's still a risk.
02:23But is it possible for Raymundo to cross that part even though there's no pedestrian lane?
02:28According to the Pasig Police, it's possible.
02:31There's a traffic light there.
02:33The signal of the red or stop light allows pedestrians to cross.
02:41The truck driver tried to arrange for the family of the victim.
02:44But he did not agree and decided to file a complaint.
02:48The family of the victim refused to give their permission.
02:51The driver asked for forgiveness for what happened.
02:55I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose.
03:01It was an accident.
03:05It's hard to...
03:08I'm sorry to the family.
03:10For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nico Jae.
03:12Your witness...
