A man lost his life in Playa del Carmen after being struck by a commercial van. The incident occurred just before midnight on Federal Highway 307, between Cálica and Punta Venado.
The man reportedly appeared suddenly on the road, resulting in a severe collision with the van. Witnesses to the accident quickly alerted local authorities, who arrived promptly at the scene.
