The rainy in recent days have generated multiple emergencies in various municipalities of Risaralda. One of the most serious cases was a landslide in the village of La Selva Baja in the municipality of Belén de Umbría, where an elderly woman died in the patio of her house.
The 75-year-old woman was buried underground when she was feeding her animals, in her own home.
The mayor of Belén de Umbría, Jesús Antonio Bermúdez, reported that although the relief agencies arrived at the scene, after several minutes of searching, “they found the body of the woman, identified as María Cecilia Monsalve.”
Also, a landslide was recorded in an area where a group of houses is being built in Dosquebradas. Apparently it was due to poor management of surface waters added to the winter of these days. The municipality’s Risk Management Directorate recommended stabilizing the slope to continue with the works.
In addition, there have been floods and deroofing of homes during the last hours in the Futuro Bajo, Brisas del Consota, Rocío Bajo, El Cortés, La Playita and Pradera Campestre neighborhoods, in Pereira and Dosquebradas.
Also, there was a landslide of great proportions on the road that connects the municipalities of La Virginia with Belalcázar.
The director of the Risaralda Sectional Civil Defense, Alfredo Muñoz, pointed out that they attended several emergencies and provided first aid to the affected families.
However, he emphasized that “alerts persist for possible landslides and sudden rises in the region’s tributaries.”
According to the latest Ideam report, there is a red alert for possible landslides in Pereira, Santuario and La Celia, and an orange alert in Apía, Balboa, Belén de Umbría, Guática, Mistrató, Pueblo Rico, Quinchía and Santa Rosa de Cabal. . Dosquebradas has a yellow alert.
