Marcela Ortiz, Argentine actress and model, dies in car accident
Marcela Ortiz, a prominent Argentine actress and model known for her work in the 1980s and 1990s, has died at age 61 following a car accident in the Tigre area. The incident occurred in Benavídez, where the vehicle she was driving, a grey Renault Sandero, veered off the road and fell into a ditch.
Emergency responders and firefighters worked to extract Ortiz from the vehicle and performed resuscitation efforts, including CPR and the use of a defibrillator, but she was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities are investigating the exact cause of the crash, specifically whether a sudden cardiac event caused her to lose control of the vehicle or if the impact itself was fatal.
Ortiz was a well-known figure in Argentine entertainment, having appeared in films such as ‘Bañeros II’ and popular television programs like ‘Yo amo a Berugo’. She was previously married to actor Raúl Taibo. Her daughter, Shelsian, confirmed the news via social media, expressing profound grief over the loss.
