Jonathan Andic called 112 crying: “I need help. My father has fallen”

Jonathan Andic called 112 at noon on December 14, 2024, after the fatal fall of his father, Isak Andic, on the Camí de les Feixades de Montserrat. He spoke with three operators, one from the emergency system, one from the Generalitat Firefighters, and a nurse from the SEM while he was on his way to the location. The three brief communications are reproduced by lawyer Cristóbal Martell in the 27-page appeal filed at three in the afternoon at the Barcelona Court, against the detention order for an alleged homicide crime by the victim’s son. In the three very brief calls, the son of the founder of Mango is heard crying. “I need help. I need help. My father has fallen. Ah, we are in Collbató. Yes, he has fallen.” When the operator asks if he fell or tripped, the businessman’s son responds through tears: “I think he fell off a cliff, please send someone, send an ambulance, send someone, please.”

Iris Tió wins two silver medals of different kinds to boost the Spanish medal tally in Paris

After a day with two hits on the bars in the men’s technical duo and solo technical routine, Spain won its first two medals at the European Championships in Paris. Iris Tió, in a busy day, was present in both, first alongside Dennis González in the mixed free duo and then with Lilou Lluís in the free duo. The first tastes like glory and even brought tears to Andrea Fuentes due to the physical problems of the swimmer from Rubí in his toughest year; the last was in the ear, which prevented them from training the choreography for more than two weeks. The second holds more sadness: Spain had been world gold in Singapore and arrived first to the final… but lost the title by just five tenths.
