A traffic accident that occurred this Sunday at the intersection of Calvario and San Francisco streets, in the historic center of Santiago de Cuba, left multiple injured.
The journalist Yosmany Mayeta reported on Facebook that the incident, which occurred between a bus and a small truck carrying a coffin in the back, left several injured, who were taken to the hospital institutions in the city.

The spokesperson did not specify the magnitude of the accident or the exact number of injured, nor the severity of the injuries, although he reported that he is continuing to investigate and seeking more details.
In another post, Mayeta noted that in the case of the pizicorre, it was "one of the leased for necrological services and has been acting as a hearse for some time."
Due to its narrowness and the large number of vehicles that travel through it, in addition to being the artery that leads directly to the main funeral home in the province, Calvario Street is prone to the occurrence of traffic accidents.
This is not the first time that incidents have occurred in Santiago de Cuba involving vehicles transporting coffins.
Last May, the poor condition of a car resulted in a coffin falling onto the asphalt in the central and populous Garzón avenue.
The incident occurred in front of a daycare center and in a very crowded area of the eastern city, a few blocks from the provincial headquarters of the PCC and near the intersection that marks kilometer 969 of the Central Highway.
Also in recent days, a vehicle from the Metal Conforming Company (Profix) in Santiago de Cuba collided with a motorbike, causing significant damage to the electric motorcycle.
The accident occurred on Victoriano Garzón Avenue and the entrance to Calle K, in the Sueño neighborhood of Santiago de Cuba, according to a report by Mayeta on her Facebook profile.
