Laura Spoya Has Successful Spine Surgery After Surco Crash, Now Recovering

Police are reviewing security footage to determine the cause.

Overview

  • Spoya’s SUV struck a wall around 3:30 a.m. on February 12 at Av. El Polo near La Encalada in Surco, prompting a rapid response from police and firefighters.
  • From the clinic, she said she sustained fractures in two vertebrae and indicated she likely fell asleep at the wheel due to work-related fatigue.
  • Brian Rullán, who is close to Spoya, reported that the spinal operation was successful and that she is stable with a reserved prognosis.
  • Media reports cite a preliminary blood alcohol result of 0.20 g/l, which is below Peru’s legal limit for private drivers, as authorities continue their inquiry.
  • Security cameras captured the vehicle crossing lanes before hitting the wall, and her family has asked for privacy as limited medical details are released.
