Andorra la VellaAn accident between a car coming from Pas de la Casa and one going there has left four injured in the Mérens-les-Vals area. The head-on collision took place on the RN20. Among the injured, one is in serious condition, according to the French authorities. She has been transferred to the Ariège valleys intercommunal hospital center (CHIVA). The seriousness of the injuries meant that she was transferred by helicopter by the Gendarmerie.
Two occupants were traveling in each vehicle and the other three injured have also been taken to the hospital by the fire department. The most likely cause of the accident, according to a first assessment by the gendarmes, is that one of the drivers would have lost control of the vehicle in a turn. The car would have occupied the opposite lane and caused the head-on collision.
