Itaewon Accident - Truck vs Wall [Call it a tie]

October 18, 2011

I was wondering why I couldn't drive down my usual hill to go to work today. I just assumed that there was a small accident and so I detoured.

I found out later that night that somehow a truck had lost control going down the hill and slammed into a concrete wall that is over the main strip of Itaewon.

I decided to grab my camera and do a little guerilla reporting.

The wall is part of a building that houses several local businesses and I'm not sure how many were injured. A colleague of mine told me that: "Several people on the street side were hurt by falling debris and from random 아저씨 talk on the street, the driver was killed, but that's yet to be confirmed."
