This Tuesday morning was marked by a tragic incident on Route 12, which led to the untimely death of Mauro Macrillanti, a 62-year-old poultry businessman from Crespo, Entre Ríos. The accident occurred near the access to Maria Luisa Village amid heavy rainfall, resulting in reduced visibility for drivers.
### Details of the Incident
According to police sources, Macrillanti was driving a Volvo when he lost control of the vehicle near a bridge. The car veered off the road, overturned multiple times, and ultimately ended up several meters from the asphalt, complicating the initial search efforts.
### Discovery and Investigation
Family and friends of Macrillanti grew concerned when they lost contact with him during the morning. A search in the nearby area led them to the accident site. The Scientific Police conducted tests to establish the causes of the crash and to examine any influencing factors.
The police confirmed Macrillanti’s death at the scene. Following the directions of the Prosecutor’s office, his body was transferred to the Oro Verde Judicial Morgue for an autopsy.
### Judicial Proceedings and Concerns on Route Safety
Ongoing judicial proceedings are aimed at clarifying the circumstances surrounding the accident, particularly focusing on road conditions at the time as well as the impact of the weather. This incident has reignited concerns about safety on certain stretches of Route 12, especially during rainy days when traction can be severely compromised.
As investigations continue, Macrillanti’s passing has left a significant void in the poultry business community in the region.
