08:06 ET<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nFootballer Marcos Alonso could face trial after a woman died in a car crash in Madrid.<\/p>\n
The Bolton Wanderers defender crashed a BMW into a wall near Real Madrid’s former training complex, not far from the Bernabeu, on Monday morning.<\/p>\n
One woman suffered fatal injuries and another was seriously hurt. Mr Alonso’s brother Miguel and former Real Madrid teammate Jaime Navarro were also hurt.<\/p>\n
Mr Alonso, who was uninjured, allegedly failed a breathalyser test afterwards.<\/p>\n
Police have not revealed what the breathalyser and subsequent blood test showed.<\/p>\n
‘Formal suspect’<\/span><\/p>\nMr Alonso, 20, appeared before an investigating judge at a closed hearing on Monday evening.<\/p>\n
The judge will have to decide if the player caused the accident and the girl’s death. If the judge rules he caused the crash he could face a trial accused of involuntary manslaughter.<\/p>\n
In a statement, the court said: “Magistrates’ Court number four in Madrid yesterday released the footballer Marcos Alonso Mendoza after naming him as a ‘formal suspect’ in an alleged crime against road safety, a crime of intoxication, of accidental killing and causing accidental injury.<\/p>\n
“In addition the judge has removed his driving licence as a precaution and he is banned from driving in Spain for the entire period of the court process.”<\/p>\n
Night out<\/span><\/p>\nAlonso, who joined Bolton Wanderers from Real Madrid last summer, was at home in the Spanish capital on a weekend break.<\/p>\n
It is understood he had been on a night out with his brother and Navarro when they met the two women.<\/p>\n
The emergency services said the car crossed into the opposite lane, overturned and collided with a wall.<\/p>\n
One woman, who has been named only as Barbara, received severe head injuries and died 30 minutes after arriving at hospital.<\/p>\n
The other, Teresa, suffered injuries to her thorax and is described as being in a serious condition.<\/p>\n
Miguel Alonso also remains in hospital with three broken ribs and bruising to his lungs.<\/p>\n
Navarro broke his collar bone and was later released from hospital.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
