At 8:41 a.m., the driver of a garbage collection truck called the Emergency Coordination Center 1-1-2 requesting help to remove a man who had fallen into the truck’s hopper.
Apparently, the 25-year-old man was inside a garbage container, on Calle Mayor in the Murcian district of Casillas, whose contents, the truck, making the daily route, had unloaded into its hopper.
