A 63-year-old woman and an 8-year-old girl lost their lives when a car was struck by a van. The highway was closed for three hours following the accident.
Upon the victims' arrival at the Emergency Department of the Blagoevgrad Hospital, tensions escalated between medical staff and the relatives of the deceased. Order was restored by two patrol cars and hospital guards.
