Britons involved in road accident to appear before judge
Two British citizens, who the eyewitnesses say had caused a deadly accident near Struga, are about to appear before a judge, Makfax correspondent said.
Ohrid resident Vladimir Cepuljoski (67) died of fatal injuries caused by the collision. His wife Margarita is still in critical condition and has been transferred to emergency clinic in Skopje.
Police sources say two British citizens - Nicholas Morley and Matthew Convell - were aboard a Porsche with Russian registration plates.
Shortly after the collusion, the two Britons tried to escape with a BMW but the police stopped them at Qafasan border crossing on the Macedonian-Albanian border.
The tragic traffic accident occurred on the Struga-Qafasan road near KMR Petrol station. The Porsche, which was running with high speed, crossed over the center lane and crashed into Golf with Ohrid registration plates.
Both cars skidded off the road. The local residents arrived at the crash site shortly afterwards. The injured passengers were rushed to nearest hospital.
According to eyewitnesses, the Porsche was moving a convoy of another four luxury vehicles, all of them running with a high speed.
They took part in the international car relly Gumball 3000. They entered Macedonia yesterday and were heading to Albania.
The international contest was organized by personalities of the world jet set. News reports say the American actress Sharon Stone and pop star Pink take part in Gumball 3000 rally.

The Gumball 3000 rally is receiving a lot of attention the past few hours, unfortunately though, for the wrong reasons. According to reports, Nicholas Morley, 30, and Matthew McConvile, 32, both British citizens, have been arrested in FYROM (Former Yugoslavian Republic Of Macedonia) for a hit & run incident when their Porsche 911 crashed into an elderly couple’s VW Golf, killing Vladimir Cepuljoski, 67 and seriously injuring his wife, Margarita who remains hospitalized in critical condition. Apparently, the two Brits tried to escape by getting into another car but they were caught by FYROM police.
