Tragedy at NAIA Terminal 1: SUV Crashes Into Entrance, Leaves Two Dead Including 5-Year-Old Girl

A black SUV rammed into the entrance/exit doors of Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 1 in Pasay City early Sunday, May 4, causing chaos and panic at the scene.

The vehicle crashed directly into one of the terminal's main access points, striking several pedestrians. Two individuals have been confirmed dead, including a 5-year-old girl. A number of others sustained injuries, though the exact count has yet to be officially released.

Security personnel were seen restraining a distraught man who claimed that his child was still pinned under the vehicle. According to witnesses, he was screaming and grieving over the loss of his daughter.

Three members of the same family were among those injured in the accident and were rushed to San Juan De Dios Hospital. The victims include a 7-year-old child, her mother, and grandmother—all residents of Lipa, Batangas.

Authorities have arrested the driver of the SUV and launched an investigation into the incident.
