Former WBO super-featherweight champion Jorge Barrios from Argentina testified on Monday before a prosecutor in a murder case in which he is accused of killing a pregnant woman in a car accident in which six others were injured Sunday night.
Police said Barrios, 33, ran a red light on Sunday, and struck another car in the coastal city of Mar del Plata, about 400 kilometers (250 miles) southeast of Buenos Aries. Barrios was driving over the speeding limit when he lost control.
The force of the crash carried the second vehicle into the path of seven pedestrians, killing one of them. Witnesses said Barrios fled the scene and struck another car as he drove away. He later turned himself in at a police station with his lawyer accompanying him. His attorney says that Barrios has no criminal record and he expects the fighter will be set free on bail.
Very sad. Not much to say here.
