Overview
- The child, who fell Sunday on a steep, poorly marked section of Cerro Ventana, was carried out by police, Protección Civil, Parques Nacionales and SPLIF to a waiting ambulance.
- Hospital Zonal’s director said the toddler was conscious, suffered facial and head injuries with a nosebleed, and remains stable under observation.
- The on-duty prosecutor opened a negligence case against the parents and ordered the carrier seized for forensic tests.
- Protección Civil reported the child stayed inside the trekking pack as it rolled, which helped soften the blows.
- Accounts differ on how far the pack rolled, with reports ranging from roughly 10–15 meters to about 30, a gap investigators will weigh as they reconstruct the fall.
