Overview
- Jonathan de Lima, 33, disappeared on December 31 after entering the water with two friends at the Quilmes waterfront despite lifeguard warnings about a strong current.
- The companions reached shore—one unaided and one rescued by lifeguards—while de Lima was carried away near the Pejerrey Club pier.
- Prefectura Naval, Civil Defense, municipal lifeguards, volunteer firefighters, and emergency teams have searched the river and shoreline for more than 48 hours without results.
- Crecida conditions reported by the Naval Hydrography Service have reduced visibility and prompted nighttime suspensions of search operations.
- The investigation is led by Quilmes UFIJ No. 2 with support from the 1st precinct, as relatives appeal for information and authorities urge avoiding unauthorized swimming areas.
