Reportedly, Aris Comninos, the stunt driver of an Alfa Romeo car, Bond's villain vehicle, got into a collision with a lorry and crashed into the side wall of the road. Beside Comninos, the co-driver was also injured though wasn't as serious as his fellow stuntman. The two had been brought into Borgo Trento hospital in Verona.

The town spokesman for the Eon Productions, Marco Girardi, revealed that the shooting actually will be wrapped up on the day of the accident after the sequence is shot. However, because of the serious accident, the Italian shooting has to be stopped and whether the filming will be restarted or not is unknown at the time being. A statement on the matter read, "Filming with the second unit on 'Quantum of Solace' will be suspended while the accident is investigated."
