The search operation took place near the Santa Fe lagoon in the municipality of Rosario, after the engineer was reported missing while on duty. According to reports, the incident occurred when the drone he was operating crashed, allegedly due to a signal jammer. Due to the terrain's characteristics, it was considered possible that the engineer might have fallen into a ravine. The search involved brigades from the Army, Civil Protection, and rescuers. The search focused on strategic points such as mountainous areas, the riverbed, and a site known as El Polvorín. The operation included overflights by a Black Hawk helicopter from the Secretariat of the Navy, as well as the use of drones to track hard-to-reach areas.
