Ex Olympiakos basketball player Dunston survives scary car accident in Turkey (video)

A large container fell onto his car

Newsroom May 3 12:26

Bryan Dunston, ex-Olympiakos basketball player, who currently plays in Turkey for Efes Anadolu is lucky in his misfortune, as the injuries from the terrifying car accident he was involved in were not serious.

The Efes player was injured by a container that fell on his car at Bakırköy Rauf Orbay Street in Florya, but the important thing is that he was miraculously saved.

The truck that was in front of Dunston’s car, hit a tunnel since its height was too small and failed to pass under the passing. The container crashed into the bottom part of the bridge and fell into the car of the Efes player.

Bryant Dunston was taken to hospital after receiving first aid.

As reported by gazzetta.gr, according to the journalist Ismael Senol, he has escaped the danger. He is speaking normally and is under observation at the hospital. He can walk while he was shocked by the accident.

According to the Turkish media, the captain of Efes Anadolu has been injured in the body, while he is being thoroughly examined.

The team’s GM, Alper Yilmaz, uploaded a picture of Dunston after the car accident from the hospital, showing the bandages on his hands.
