Dominican Republic club collapse survivor recounts being buried under dead bodies for hours: 'So many people calling for help'
"I heard a cell phone ring from another person, but he was dead. He had his hand on top of me, and he was dead because he had the light on his face."
"I called New York, and told my son's father, 'Please, protect my son. Don't tell him anything. Protect my son, protect my father, protect my mamma.'"
Patricia Ovalles, a survivor of the nightclub roof collapse in the Dominican Republic, shared her harrowing experience of being trapped under rubble and dead bodies for almost six hours. Through a frantic call to her ex, Ovalles expressed her fear of dying and urged him to protect her son. She vividly recounted the chaos before the collapse, including a poignant moment involving singer Rubby Perez, who continued to perform for his daughter until it was too late. The tragedy claimed 225 lives, leaving a profound impact on the nation.
