[HIGHLIGHTS] Desperate search for two young people who were swept away by the current of the Mendoza River

Two young people were swept away by the current of the Mendoza River. One threw himself near Luján de Cuyo and another in San Martín.

The two cases became known a few hours after the death of another 19-year-old young man. The flow of the river increased significantly in the last hours, after the General Irrigation Department opened the gates of the Potrerillos Dam. The Government asks to take precautions when bathing, especially for tourists who arrive from different parts of the country.
