The lifeless body of a 16 -year -old who disappeared this Thursday afternoon while bathed in the Carrión River as Palencia has been located this Friday at noon. The minor was in the area of Santa Marina, near the town center, when he was lost sight of. NATIONAL POLICE SUBMARINISTAS have found the body “a few 20 meters from the place where they saw him alive for the last time,” according to the Government Subdelegation in Palencia.
The spring temperatures on Thursday in the area encouraged the young man to get into the river channel. Security experts insist that although they seem otherwise, because there are strong currents under the surface. To this is added the trunks, rocks, algae or aquatic vegetation in which the bathers can remain tangled, somewhat more likely after episodes of coming such as those that have caused the temporary ones that have crossed Spain in recent weeks and that have been noticed in the rivers of the North Plateau, such as the Carrión.
When the people who were in the place were not located, the Firefighters of Palencia intervened in the rescue, but their first search was unsuccessful to find the adolescent’s whereabouts and the performance of the police and firefighters continued the tracking work until well into the night, with the added help of an elite patrol patrol of the police that is specialized in water operations.
The team of submariners was in Madrid, required for another cause, according to the Government Subdelegation in Palencia, and arrived at Carrión around 11 at night. The Brigade acted in the place until two in the morning, at which time the search was suspended, which has been activated again at eight on Friday. The new efforts have achieved, a few hours later, to find the body of the child drowned just about 20 meters from where it was lost. The authorities have not yet informed of more details about the deceased, apart from his age, and the place where the events occurred with his death.
The finding occurs just a few hours after other diving teams found on the Pisuerga river, as it passes through the city of Valladolid, the lifeless body of a young man who had been missing for several weeks. Popular beaters and police information did not serve to find him and in the last dates the work on the channel had multiplied.
