The incident occurred on the road leading to Punta Prieta. The car likely suffered a brake system failure. This caused loss of traction and the vehicle overturned onto its roof during the fall.

The Guardia Civil and firefighters (Bomberos) evacuated both men from the wreckage. One brother resides in Punta Prieta. The other resides in Candelaria. Both were transported to the Nuestra Señora de Candelaria University Hospital. Their condition is assessed as minor.
