A firefighter from Madrid dies in a mountain accident in Huesca

112 has mourned the death of Miguel Ángel Hernández Andrés, a member of the Community of Madrid Firefighters, stationed at Park 23 in Arganda del Rey, which occurred last Tuesday, April 30, in a mountain accident in Huesca.

Through the social network X, 112 of the Community of Madrid has sent a big hug to the family, friends and colleagues of the deceased.

All the fire stations in the Community of Madrid wanted to pay tribute to the colleague who died in Huesca and send a huge hug to his family.

The accident occurred on Tuesday afternoon in the Sorrosal ravine, in the Huesca Pyrenees municipality of Broto.

According to the Civil Guard, a person who was at the Sorrosal Waterfall viewpoint reported around 8:20 p.m. that he had seen a canyoner rappelling, but after half an hour he could only see the rope.

The GREIM Boltaña located the lifeless body of the canyoner in the penultimate rappel of the ravine, but his rescue could not be carried out that same day due to lack of light and the strong flow and had to be postponed to yesterday, Wednesday.
