The society of Patras is shocked by the tragic traffic accident that occurred on Sunday night on the new Patras-Athens National Highway where a 66-year-old man and his 3-year-old grandson and a 53-year-old woman were killed.

The Jaguar heading to Patras, driven by 66-year-old Dimitrios Skarlatos, where his namesake three-year-old grandson and his 62-year-old wife were riding, under circumstances that are being investigated, veered off course, entered the opposite stream and ended up on top of the 53-year-old’s car, who also lost her life.

According to eyewitnesses, the luxury car slipped into waters from the island’s irrigation system.

Information states that the 66-year-old driver lived in Germany and had come to his place of origin, Patras, for the wedding of his child, whom he married a few days ago.

It is recalled that Dimitrios Skarlatos of Evangelos, 66, from Paralia Patras, the 3-year-old grandson of Dimitris Skarlatos of Evangelos, and 53-year-old Maria Alexandratos of Menelaus, a living resident of Rio, are dead.

The wife of the dead driver and grandmother of the child are hospitalized in a serious condition.
