A 34‑year‑old nurse died early Sunday after the ambulance she was in slid off a cliff on the Sánchez road near Fondo Negro in Barahona. The victim, identified as Josely Báez, also known as Yoja, was transported with a child who had sustained a gunshot wound from a “chilena” firearm. The child was treated at the emergency department of the Hospital Universitario Jaime Mota and was scheduled for transfer to a health center in the capital. The ambulance driver, whose identity has not yet been released, was unharmed. Authorities are expected to provide additional details about the accident in the coming hours.
