Four Youths Injured in Drunk-Driving Crash on Andorra Highway

Four young people were injured in a single-vehicle crash early Sunday morning on the CG-2 highway near Canillo's waterfalls, heading toward Pas de la Casa, when the Spanish-registered car veered off the road and collided with a mountainside.

Police received a call about the incident at 3:30 a.m. in the Moles waterfall area. The vehicle, carrying five occupants, suffered major frontal damage and came to rest partially blocking the opposite lane. Four of the passengers—all youths—required emergency treatment at the scene. The 30-year-old tourist driver tested positive for alcohol with a blood alcohol level of 1.14. He had left the crash site before police arrived and turned himself in around 7 a.m. at police headquarters, where he was arrested on suspicion of a crime against public safety and four counts of reckless injury.

An initial Diari d'Andorra report around 6:45 a.m. described the event as involving only material damage and no injuries, but later police details confirmed the casualties and the driver's condition. Authorities managed traffic on the uphill stretch while the vehicle was cleared.

No updates are available on the victims' conditions or the precise ages of those involved. Police have made four additional arrests since Friday for drink-driving, involving three men and one woman aged 31 to 49 with alcohol levels ranging from 1.02 to 1.79 at various points on the road network.
