The detained man apparently tested positive for alcohol and drugs. According to sources from the investigation, the driver, who was arrested on the spot, recorded a result of three times the allowed blood alcohol level.
The incident happened on the AP-7 motorway at kilometre 567, in the direction of Alicante. The vehicle allegedly hit the officer, who was 33 years old, while he was riding his motorbike. The victim died at the scene.
The arrested driver is charged with the crimes of reckless homicide and an offence against road safety for driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs. The proceedings have been handed over to the examining magistrate's court in Sueca. The tragedy has shocked the officer's colleagues in the National Police force, who remember him fondly. Those who worked with him remember him for his kindness and generosity.
