Tragedy in Blaquier: what was the gas that intoxicated the victims and what happened in the well. Ricardo Bottega (60) went to repair a sewage pump and died of asphyxiation.

Juan Ramon Sánchez and his son Nicolás, Mateo Pelegrino, Carlos Rodolfo Renger and Alejandro Centeno drowned in the rescue maneuvers. Expert reports on the facilities of this sewage well have already begun, but for now it has not been possible to determine the amount of methane gas that was present.
