Crime | August 10, 2007, Friday // 00:00

The life of the girl, who was heavily wounded in a car crash caused by Maxim Staviiski, is out of danger although her condition remains grave, doctors said on Friday.

Manuela Gorsova, 18, has undergone an operation in the Sofia hospital, where she was transported to on Wednesday. As a result of the intervention, the victim can now breathe independently.

Her diagnosis is severe cranial trauma with a brain swelling. The good news is that her organs and vital systems did not suffer any serious injuries.

The condition of the other two people involved in the crash - the 19-year-old Yoana Shopova and the 17-year-old Valentin Petrov, the brother of the man, killed in the crash, is stable.

The drunk driving crash, between Staviiski's Hummer sport utility vehicle and two cars, occurred late Sunday on a bridge near the Black Sea city of Burgas.

Staviiski veered into the opposite lane and bumped headlong into a Honda Civic with four people riding in it.
