Tragedy Strikes Panama's Corredor de los Pobres: Four-Year-Old Killed in Hit-and-Run A tragic accident occurred Tuesday night on Panama's Corredor de los Pobres, leaving a four-year-old child dead and their mother seriously injured. The incident took place at a pedestrian crossing equipped with traffic lights, yet the driver, according to witnesses, sped through the intersection and fled the scene. "The driver didn't even stop," stated a nearby resident, highlighting the shocking nature of the event. The lack of pedestrian safety measures, despite the presence of a crossing, has been brought into question following the accident.
