4 Navy officers, enlisted man okay after accident
MANILA, Philippines — Four Navy officers and an enlisted man who were injured in a traffic accident along Roxas Boulevard on Thursday are in stable condition and recovering at the hospital, the Philippine Navy spokesman said.
One of the four officers, Lieutenant Commander Felix Luzoriaga, is under observation at the AFP Medical Center in Quezon City since he was hit on the head after their staff car collided with a truck on the corner of Roxas Boulevard and Quirino Avenue at around 8:45 a.m., Commander Giovanni Carlo Bacordo said.
The three other officers and the enlisted man, who was driving the staff car, suffered lesser “bruises and concussions” and are at the Philippine Navy Hospital in Fort Bonifacio, Bacordo said.
“He is conscious and out of danger,” Bacorodo said of Luzoriaga, who was earlier reported to be in critical condition.
The five had just left the Philippine Navy headquarters on their way to the Manila South Harbor for a seminar when their vehicle collided with the truck owned by the Department of Public Works and Highways.
