Event A woman, her son and her 5-year-old grandson die in the fire of a house in a 24-story tower in Villajoyosa (Alicante)
The burned house in
Villajoyosa
in which a woman, her son and her five-year-old grandson died this Monday has been completely burned.
This can be seen in some images released by the Civil Guard in which the apartment appears
completely reduced to ashes.
The building in which the fire originated was a 24-story block in the Alicante town.
In addition to the three fatalities, another 15 people were injured by smoke inhalation.
The mayor of Villajoyosa described what happened as a "tremendous misfortune" and stressed that the Emergency services acted quickly but could do nothing to save the life of this family who died along with their pet.
The main hypothesis is
an overload in a socket in the living room.
With this event yesterday we remembered the tragic fire that took place a few days ago in a housing block in Campanar (Valencia), in which ten people died.
