Saved by the dog. A happy ending to a misadventure yesterday afternoon for a sixty-four-year-old man, victim of an accident in the mountains of Maracalagonis.

He was hiking in a rugged area when he slipped into a ravine and injured his leg. Unable to move, he couldn't even call for help.

But luckily, the dog was with him: the animal noticed that other people in the area were passing by on a nearby path, attracted their attention and made them follow him to the point where his master was.

So the call for help was made immediately. An Areus helicopter had to intervene on the spot: the injured man was loaded using a winch and transported to the hospital. His conditions are not serious.
