The founder of Mango, Isak Andic Ermay, died this Saturday at the age of 71 in a mountain accident. The businessman was on a hike with his wife and son in the Salnitre caves of Collbató, in the Baix Llobregat, when he slipped and fell down a 150-meter ravine. The emergency services received a call at 12:39 p.m. that a person had fallen from a great height down a ravine in the Coves de Salnitre. Upon arrival, they found the body of a 71-year-old man who was rescued by the mountain unit of the Mossos d'Esquadra. The body was in an area of difficult access. Citizen security patrols and a Mossos helicopter and units of the Generalitat Fire Department and the Medical Emergency System (SEM) were also activated.
