A 23-year-old homeless man has died in Bilbao following a traffic accident. According to the Basque Department of Security, the deceased took place on 12 March.

The young man spent the nights in the hostel and the days in the street, with the guitar beside him. One of its attractions was the neighbourhood of Uribarri, whose neighbours have placed flowers, photos and posters in the place where the deceased was usually located, according to municipal sources.

It is the second 'homeless' deceased this year in Euskal Herria. In January, a 56-year-old man died in Hendaia, on a night when temperatures were very low; the body was found inside. Days earlier, in December, another homeless person died in Zarautz. In addition, in January, the mortal remains of a 34-year-old homeless man missing in December in pre-trial detention on charges of killing a 51-year-old man were found on the beach of Arrigunaga de Getxo.
