Héctor Gómez, a Dominican baseball reporter, Octavio Dotel passed away while en route to a hospital after being rescued from the rubble at the Jet Set night club in Santo Domingo.

Dotel was famously a pitcher for the Kansas City Royals and the St. Louis Cardinals. Crews were searching for potential survivors in the rubble at the one-story Jet Set nightclub, said Juan Manuel Méndez, director of the Center of Emergency Operations.

Dotel was reportedly among the eight people who were pulled alive from the rubble.

Friend of mine works in the DR and was there last weekend. It looked really nice on the inside. Sad situation.

Anyone that leaves the resort in the DR is taking a big gamble. Love PC but Im not going out and about

I have a condo in Puerto Plata. Felt safer there than I do in BR, Monroe, Shitport, or Nola.

Santo Domingo and it’s pretty cool. They have some nice restaurants, beautiful women and good night clubs.
