The person in charge of the collection noticed the situation and quickly turned off the hydraulic commands to stop compaction, but it is a concurrent process. The worker called the Police to report what happened and later different jobs were carried out to extract the body since the device had been elevated.
About the fact, the Undersecretary of Public Works and Services of the Municipality of Bariloche, Eduardo Garza, explained that unfortunately it is “much more common than one imagines“for a homeless person to take refuge in a container.
“We assume that the person lay down to sleep inside the garbage container, looking for shelter, looking for warmthbut there is also the possibility that have suffered an attack”, said the official in dialogue with the local media radio six.
“The truck has a camera that focuses the mouth of the plastic bin, which is lifted with tweezers, and so it was that the driver observed a person falling within the compaction system”, he specified regarding what happened.

Jara’s death it happened in december 2021, in an incident that occurred on San Martín street, in the same district. As happened in this new event, she slept in one of the containers in the center whose contents were thrown into the cargo box of a collection truck.
