Overview
- The latest hospital report says Bastián Jerez, 8, is clinically and hemodynamically stable in a medically induced coma with mechanical ventilation.
- Doctors performed multiple high‑complexity surgeries, including placement of an intracranial pressure valve and subsequent abdominal closure after earlier emergency operations for severe hepatic trauma.
- Prosecutor Sergio García imputed Maximiliano Jerez for lesiones culposas, attributing to him the failure to ensure the child used a seatbelt; the Amarok driver and the UTV driver had already been imputed.
- Witness accounts and police forensic work indicate the child was on his father's lap without a seatbelt in a four‑seat UTV carrying five occupants; both vehicles were seized for accident reconstructions and technical studies.
- The investigation advances with new witness statements and information requests to national road safety authorities and Pinamar officials, while separate local reports note another UTV rollover injuring one person in La Frontera.
