A car plunged into the crowd waiting in line in front of the Plaza Theater in Godoy Cruz city, in the Argentinean province of Mendoza. While the accident injured 23 people, 3 of whom were seriously injured, numerous ambulances were dispatched to the scene.
According to authorities, the driver of the vehicle is disabled and mistook the gas pedal for the brake. The Plaza Theater’s performances have been canceled until Wednesday.
Andriy Portnov, former aide to ex-Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, was shot dead in Madrid’s upscale Pozuelo de Alarcon district. Spanish authorities say unidentified gunmen opened fire as the 52-year-old was dropping off his children at school, striking him in the back and head before fleeing.
Portnov, a former MP and lawyer, fled Ukraine with Yanukovych in 2014, briefly returned in 2019, and was later sanctioned by the U.S. for alleged judicial corruption.
