Diogo Jota accident currently under investigation

As reported by Marca, the 28-year-old footballer and his brother, Andre Silva, 25, also a footballer, lost their lives in a car accident.

While overtaking on the A-52 near Valladolid, a suspected tyre blowout sent the vehicle off the road, where it crashed and caught fire.

Per reports, fire crews managed to extinguish the flames, which had spread to nearby vegetation.

They worked alongside emergency responders and the Civil Guard before confirming the deaths.

A representative of the Civil Guard in Zamora stated:

''The crash is currently under investigation by traffic officers from the Civil Guard. Preliminary analysis of the road markings suggests a tyre blowout may have occurred. Once finalised, the full police report will be forwarded to the duty court in Zamora, which has initiated a judicial inquiry into the incident.''

"The report is still in progress and is expected to take around four to five days to complete, though it could take longer. Right now, we can’t determine the exact speed of the vehicle, but Civil Guard investigators will be able to estimate it based on evidence such as skid marks. What we can confirm at this stage is that the crash involved no other vehicles and no additional injuries were reported."
