A famous Armenian singer is suspected of causing Friday’s fatal traffic accident in Yerevan, the capital city of Armenia.  

According to shamshyan.com, police have found the driver and his SUV which had hit a woman who already was hit by another SUV in downtown Yerevan, and who had fled the scene with his vehicle.

This driver is Haykaram Ghevondyan, 46, who is known among the Armenian people as singer Spitakci Hayko, and the vehicle he was driving is a Range Rover Stratstone.

It was also found out that the Kia Sorento—which first had hit this woman—was driven by Arayik Ch., 43, who serves in a military unit of the Ministry of Defense, and the victim was Yerevan resident Knarik Petikyan, 68.

The police have impounded the Range Rover, while Spitakci Hayko underwent a medical examination, and it was determined that he was not under the influence of alcohol at the time of this accident.

A forensic medical examination of the woman’s body has been commissioned to find out whether she had died as a result of the first or the second impact.

Both drivers have been released on a signature bond.
