A woman and a man died when the motorcycle they were riding collided with a truck on Route 201 in downtown Monterrey.

The tragedy occurred shortly after 8:00 a.m. on Arteaga Street, at its intersection with Galeana.

Due to the strong impact between the heavy vehicle and the motorcycle, the woman, about 30 years old, was thrown from the ground and died instantly.

It is still unknown which vehicle ran the red light.

Due to the collision, the urban transport truck, which was traveling along Arteaga, dragged the motorcycle, which was traveling along Galeana.

Her body, whose name is only known as Gabriela, was found lying a few meters away from the intersection.

The passenger, who was driving the motorcycle, suffered serious injuries and was taken by Red Cross paramedics to the IMSS Zone 21 Hospital, but died upon arrival.

All that's known about him is that his name was Oziel. The protective helmets they were both wearing were scattered on the pavement.

The woman was wearing pink tennis shoes and a red backpack.

Monterrey Transit implemented a road closure on Arteaga Street, from Guerrero to Emilio Carranza.

The driver of Route 201, bus number 3507, was detained while the expert appraisal and other necessary investigations are conducted.
