According to the relief media, a warning call was received by 118 [equivalent to 122], realizing that a man had become unconscious after falling upon him several bales of straw. 

According to Telecinco, the accident occurred when a discharge operation was carried out on a property where the victim worked. At that moment, part of the cattle will have fled, the victim having run in an attempt to control the animals. 

The creator will have approached the vehicle with the intention of removing them from the area, but several bales have fallen on him and caused his fall, when he will have hit the shovel of a tractor standing by the truck.

When the paramedics arrived at the scene, the man was in cardiac arrest.  

Although they provided resuscitation maneuvers, health professionals were unable to reverse the situation and, finally, their death was declared.

The Civil Guard is already conducting the investigations necessary to clarify the circumstances of the incident.
