Initial reports indicate that the young woman began to feel unwell at the start of the parade, but despite rapid medical attention, she died, according to the Argentine News Agency. The sad news was confirmed by municipal authorities, who issued a statement lamenting the situation and offering condolences to the family. Local media reported that the young woman's father is a municipal employee in the Social Action department, which caused even more grief.
