The very young Colombian cyclist Jerónimo Jaramillo died today at the age of 16 after suffering an accident during the second stage of the Clásica de Rionegro, in which he was participating. Apparently, an ambulance driving in the opposite direction would have hit the rider, causing the fatal outcome.
This is the statement of the Antioquia Cycling League: "The Antioquia Cycling League, the municipal administration of Rionegro, the IMER Rionegro and the organization of the XVIII Clásica Ciclística Ciudad Santiago de Arma-Rionegro deeply regret the death of the young cyclist Jerónimo Jaramillo Berrocal, 16 year old cyclist member of the Itaca-Cobelén team and who was participating in the youth competition."
"Jerónimo suffered an accident during the development of the second stage very close to the finish line in the municipality of Puerto Triunfo. After the accident all procedures were activated to help him and preserve his life. Jerónimo was taken to the Puerto Boyacá Hospital where he was stabilized and later to the Somer Clinic in Rionegro. In the early hours of Thursday morning Jerónimo passed away due to the consequences of the accident, a situation that fills the entire caravan with deep sadness".
CyclingUpToDate would like to extend it's condolences to friends and family of Jerónimo.
