April 8, 20251 yr Horrible news out of the Dominican Republic: Octavio Dotel Dies In Roof Collapse Tragedy - MLB Trade Rumors
April 8, 20251 yr Quote Exact details of the tragic situation are difficult to pin down, but it appears hundreds of people were in the venue for a concert when the collapse happened. Dozens of people have been pulled out alive but many have died and the figures are likely to change. Dotel was reportedly trapped for about 11 hours before being rescued and initially survived, but was declared dead after being taken to a hospital. That's incredibly awful

April 8, 20251 yr RIP and nothing but thoughts and prayers for all of the people impacted by this tragedy.
