The causes of the accident are still unknown at this time.

On Monday night, a motorcyclist was seriously injured after crashing into a pole in Songo-La Maya, Santiago de Cuba.

The driver was identified as David Lesyan Rodríguez Diez, 32 years old. He was quickly assisted by people who had gathered at the scene and they put him in a car that took him to the local polyclinic.

From there, he was transferred by ambulance to the Provincial Hospital Saturnino Lora, as in Songo La Maya there is no service for seriously injured individuals.

Presumably, the young man was drinking alcohol, because they say he was at a birthday party, a version that has not been able to be corroborated," reported independent journalist Yosmany Mayeta Labrada.

Last week, a couple died in a crash between a motorcycle and a rickshaw in the town of Redención, in the municipality of Minas, Camagüey.

A witness revealed that "the guys on the motorcycle died and the driver of the riquimbili is the one who is hospitalized."

Days before, in Cuabitas, Santiago de Cuba, a young motorcyclist who was speeding crashed into a police car.

After the collision, he lay in the street, bleeding from his head. The motorcycle broke in two, with the vehicle's handlebar stuck under the car.

At the beginning of the month, the well-known journalist Cuscó Tarradel was involved in a traffic accident in Santiago de Cuba, at the intersection of Enramadas Street and Hernán Cortés.

The collision was between a motorcycle and a scooter. The reporter was carried away from the scene because he apparently suffered moderate injuries that required medical attention.
