The tragedy occurred on a street around 11:30 a.m. Vicente Ros de Puçol, a resident on that road, stood on the second level of his balcony to fix the awning. For reasons still under investigation, he fell from the ladder he had used. He collided with a tree planted with orange trees on the pavement and then struck a car with significant force. The impact damaged the asphalt, and the man died instantly. The local medical center, located just over a hundred meters from the site, received notice that a woman entered the facility shouting that the man had fallen. Sources: Local authorities report.

Paramedics arrived quickly, but the man was already dead. Early witness accounts suggested he had fallen between two cars parked beneath his balcony and briefly disappeared from view for passing pedestrians. There appeared to be little activity beneath the home that might have drawn attention to the incident. Some witnesses noted that the staircase rested on the balcony railing, and investigators suspect the man may have attempted to grasp the awning fabric before the fall. Sources: Local eyewitness accounts.
The news stirred strong emotion throughout the neighborhood and among nearby residents, with neighbors describing the deceased as a kind person and a longtime neighbor who was well known in the area. The Civil Guard has taken charge of the investigation to determine the sequence of events and confirm the causes of the accident. Sources: Civil Guard statement.
