A CAR HIT HIM, ANOTHER RAN OVER HIM
Shortly after the first accident, a car with the license plate 35 EDC 35, driven by Selahattin D, passed over Yıldırım, who was lying on the ground, due to the darkness of the road. Selahattin D, who got out of his vehicle, reported the situation to the police and medical teams. The medical teams that arrived at the scene determined that Yıldırım had lost his life. The police took security measures on the road. The driver, Selahattin Doğan, was taken to the police station for questioning. After the police investigation at the scene, Yunus Yıldırım's lifeless body was taken to the Yenibosna Forensic Medicine Institution morgue by a funeral vehicle.
NOTABLE DETAIL
On the other hand, it was noteworthy that the streetlights in the area where the accident occurred were not working. The police teams initiated a search to catch the driver who fled after the accident.
