The woman who fell this Monday into a 20-meter ravine in Los Roferos de Teseguite remains in critical condition at the José Molina Orosa Hospital. She was accompanied by her mother, who died at the scene.

Enrique Espinosa, the Emergency Consortium Manager, confirms that we will have to wait for "the next 48 hours" to know if "the 45-year-old woman evolves correctly". A time that is "crucial", he says.

According to Espinosa, "they were going at an improper speed", and quickly "they deviated from the curve and plunged into the void", he says. At which moment they were thrown "almost 10 meters from the vehicle", that's how they found both when they arrived at the scene.

The firefighters went there, who spent "four hours to get the two injured women out".

It is known that the 60-year-old mother died immediately, but we must still wait to know the outcome of her daughter, for whom Enrique wishes that "since there is tragedy, it only stays in one person".
