Overview
- A 30-year-old man died after being struck while crossing a marked crosswalk by a Line 152 bus on Avenida Santa Fe in Retiro, and emergency crews pronounced him dead at the scene.
- The collision occurred between Suipacha and Carlos Pellegrini and left the bus with a broken windshield at the right-side impact point shown in official video.
- SAME said it will apply its 'Factor Humano' procedure to assess the driver’s decisions and conduct, and Policía de la Ciudad installed a rescue gazebo while peritos began forensic work to reconstruct the sequence.
- Reports differ on who suffered minor injuries; one outlet says a passenger was treated for minor wounds while another says the driver received light care, and authorities have not resolved that discrepancy.
- Investigators are working to determine whether human error, a mechanical defect, or other factors caused the crash, and traffic delays were reported with drivers advised to use alternate routes while the inquiry continues.
