TWO Brits have tragically died in a road accident after a suspected drugs traffickers’ speedboat smashed into their car.

Another eight people were left injured, including a third Brit who is fighting for his life, as cops hunt down the escaped owner of the out-of-control boat.

Police say that the initial crash caused a mass pile on of six cars.

The Brits were all men aged between 47 and 54, the Civil Guard confirmed.

The driver of the vehicle which had been carrying the suspect vessel on a trailer fled the scene and was still being hunted by police today.

A Civil Guard spokesman said: “The accident happened around 9.30pm last night on the RM-12 around the El Algar municipality.

“A semi-rigid boat on board a trailer a vehicle was pulling came off and ended on the road across both lanes.

“A car travelling behind it with three British men inside aged between 47 and 54 smashed into the vessel.

“The driver of the vehicle that was travelling with the speed boat on the trailer fled the scene.

“He has yet to be arrested.

“The boat he was carrying that ended up on the dual-carriageway has all the characteristics of a so-called ‘narco lancha’ involved in drug trafficking and an investigation is ongoing.”
