Sozopol Municipality declares day of mourning for youths killed in accident near Chernomorets  - 1

The beginning of next week in the municipality of Sozopol will begin with a day of mourning as a sign of sympathy for the death of the three boys who died in an accident near Chernomorets late last night.

By order of Mayor Tihomir Yanakiev on Monday, October 20, flags on all administrative buildings will be lowered, and public events organized by the municipality will be canceled.

In the event that a previously planned event cannot be canceled, the organizers should take it into account and it should begin with a minute of silence in memory of the deceased.

The Regional Directorate of the Ministry of Interior in Burgas reported that the driver lost control of the car due to excessive speed and crashed into a roadside tree.

He received his license a day earlier - on November 16.
