“This is a very tragic incident. Our priority now is to make sure the victims and their families receive the support and care they need.”
Thus vowed New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) President Ramon S. Ang, as he committed to providing immediate assistance to the victims of the vehicular accident that occurred on Sunday at the departure level of NAIA Terminal 1.
Initial reports indicate that a sports utility vehicle was parked near the terminal entrance when it suddenly accelerated, crashing through the outer railing and into the walkway. The driver is currently in police custody and a probe is underway.
Ang said that while the investigation is ongoing, he will personally shoulder the medical expenses of the four individuals who were injured and provide financial assistance to the families of the two who died in the incident.
“The NNIC is working closely with authorities and continues to support all ongoing response and investigation efforts. The company extends its deepest sympathies to the families of the deceased and wishes those injured a full and speedy recovery,” said Ang.
