Officials are investigating the death of telenovela actress Adriana Campos and her partnerCarlos Ríncon, who passed away in an automobile accident on Tuesday in Colombia. The incident occurred at 6 a.m. local time on November 3rd, when Rincón lost control of the automobile, causing the car to fall in the Cauca river. The couple was driving southwest of Colombia's Department of Antioquia headed to Medellin.

New reports speculate the cause of death of the two-time TV y Novelas nominee and the businessman, who left behind their 1-year-old son. The first theory, according to El Tiempo, is that the gentleman dozed off behind the wheel, causing the car to loose control and fall in the river. "When he woke up, it was too late to control the car," said major Andrés Gómez, of Seccional de Tránsito y Transporte de Antioquia to the publication. Gómez also believes that second theory might have been a possible mechanical complication. Although it's believed that the couple drowned, other publications report that they died from their severe fractures.

Meanwhile, people on the Internet have their own theories. Many of which believe that the couple was not involved in a car accident, but were victims of a homicide. "Accidents. No such thing as as accidents. Especially in Colombia," said one Facebook user. "This was a lovely couple that was killed in an 'accident'? It's Colombia...not the safest place in the world. I hope this is investigated, although I don't think it will be," commented another Latin Times reader.

The body of Adriana, who had a trajectory of 15 years and worked in novelas, television, film and theater, will be taken to Bogotá, where she will be buried. Ríncon will be buried in Campos de Paz.
