Inter Milan’s Josep Martinez involved in car crash that results in death of elderly person in wheelchair.
Inter Milan goalkeeper Josep Martinez was involved in a tragic road incident in northern Italy, where an 81-year-old man in an electric wheelchair passed away following a collision, as confirmed by local police. The unfortunate event occurred on Tuesday in Fenegr, a town in Como province, while Martinez was on his way to Inter's training ground in Appiano Gentile. Reports suggest that the wheelchair user, who was on a nearby cycle path, unexpectedly crossed into the path of Martinez's vehicle. Despite the goalkeeper's immediate actions to help the victim and the swift response of emergency services, the elderly man succumbed to his injuries at the scene. Authorities have launched an investigation into the crash, analyzing factors like tire marks and speed to piece together what happened. Inter Milan opted to cancel their pre-match press conference ahead of their upcoming game against Fiorentina in light of the incident. Meanwhile, Martinez, who has made a dozen appearances for Inter since his arrival in 2024, has not yet commented on the matter.
