As sources from the headquarters explained to El Observador, the child was in the care of his grandparents, who had gone to prun trees on a nearby property. at a certain time he approached a warehouse, in which there was a pile of truck and tractor wheels. For reasons unknown at this time., a mound of truck wheels collapsed. and one of them, weighing 80 kg, fell on his head.
