Two men fell to their deaths after falling from a flyover and landing on MRT tracks on Sunday evening.
The incident forced the MRT-3 to suspend operations at around 6:37 p.m. as emergency personnel attended to the incident.
Initial police reports showed that the two victims were aboard a motorcycle.
The report showed that the rider and his passenger lost control of the vehicles due to slippery roads caused by the downpour.
A witness told ABS-CBN News that the motorcycle was running at 70-75KPH when the fatal accident happened.
“Andun po sa pataas ng flyover, nagovertake sakin. Tas pag overtake gumewang. Iba na pakiramdam ko,” a witness recalled.
“Tumigil. Tumingin ako. Na-shock ako sa nangyare dahil lumipad yung dalawa. Pag tingin ko no movement na dalawa. Saka parang tumama pa sa high voltage,” he explained.
