Spain’s National Police released information on four fatalities on Friday when a bar and restaurant team on the island of Mallorca collapsed.
Police said two European women, aged 20 and 30, died, along with a 33- yr- old Spanish woman and a 44- year- ancient African man. The Spanish girl worked in the league, they said.
According to Palma de Mallorca Mayor Jaime Martnez and Eder Garca, a spokeswoman for the fire department and a spokesman for the city, extra pounds on a first-floor balcony may have contributed to the collapse on Thursday.
Five persons are said to be in critical condition, while another six are hurt. They were being treated at regional clinics. There were no instantly details on their countries.
