Man run over on crosswalk on Estrada de Eiras

Diário de Coimbra2 September 2026 at 13:00

A man was run over on a crosswalk on Estrada de Eiras, according to news reports about the incident. The run-over occurred at a location designated for pedestrian crossing, which raises questions about the safety conditions on that road.

In a separate occurrence, a hit-and-run collision was recorded on Avenida Mendes Silva. The driver responsible for the accident left the scene without providing assistance or exchanging information with the other party involved.

Both incidents refer to traffic occurrences in the Coimbra area, specifically involving pedestrians and vehicles. The competent authorities will likely have intervened to record the accidents and investigate the circumstances of each case.

Firefighters alert: do not leave these 3 appliances plugged in while you sleep

Firefighters warn about the dangers of leaving the washing machine, tumble dryer, and dishwasher running overnight without supervision. These appliances combine electricity, water, and high temperatures, and a malfunction can cause a fire that goes unnoticed while the family sleeps. The dryer deserves special attention due to lint buildup in the filter, which can impair ventilation. Emergency services recommend programming these appliances to run during periods when someone is awake at home, capable of detecting signs of abnormal operation and reacting quickly.
