Overview

• Intense September 7 rains inundated Lomas Altas de Padierna, where water surged into a below-street-level house and trapped the victim identified as Elisa/Elizabeth, 88.
• Neighbors tried to bail out the fast-rising, sewage-laden water with buckets before firefighters removed the body and ERUM medics reported no vital signs with probable drowning.
• The SSC secured the scene and the FGJ-CDMX began investigative diligences to confirm the exact cause and assess whether public servants were negligent.
• Alcaldía Tlalpan said it will cover funeral expenses, accompany the family through legal procedures, and enroll them in social welfare programs.
• Following meetings with residents, local authorities agreed on immediate drainage and safety measures, including regular desazolves, a technical review for a resumidero, and installation of grates and speed bumps, as city agencies continue rainy-season responses.
