Residents of the Guachupita neighborhood Jarro Sucio are in shock after two families were killed, squashed below a landslide that fell from above a cliff. Carlita Mendez and her neighbors Catalina Feliz and her five children were killed when the rain-saturated soil collapsed on top of the victims. Odalis Rosario and Adelina Rosaro, who lived right next to Feliz, both survived the tragedy. Reports indicate that at 1am on Wednesday, Feliz was heard screaming that she was stuck under the earth. Authorities say she was trying to save her children because her body was found wrapped around one of her sons. Neighbors say the door to her house had a locked gate that impeded her to make a fast escape. Only one of Feliz's children, Jose, survived. He was sleeping at an aunt's house. His father was at work during the accident.
