Overview

• Police say the girls had just stepped off a Line 600 bus and were crossing behind it on Lavalle around 10,500 when another bus traveling the opposite way struck them.
• Both vehicles belong to Grupo 600 – El Plumerillo S.A., and emergency responders confirmed the sisters died at the scene.
• The driver, identified as Daniel Heredia, 36, remained on site and was detained; passengers were not injured, according to initial reports.
• The investigation, now led by transit prosecutor Giselle Lana, is evaluating bus security footage, speed data and other peritajes under an averiguación de homicidio culposo.
• Neighbors report frequent crashes and a lack of speed reducers and enforcement on the corridor, as the school community mourns and a local fundraising drive supports the girls’ grandparents.
