A young girl's life was tragically cut short while on a family vacation in Majorca. The 11-year-old from Ireland fell from a balcony at Club Mac, a popular resort in Puerto de Alcudia. It was reported that the incident occurred at around 6:30am this morning, when most people were still asleep.
According to Spanish authorities who are currently investigating the case, the girl's parents were not aware of what had happened as they were sleeping at the time. It was only when another hotel guest discovered her body that emergency services were alerted. Despite the efforts of paramedics to revive her, the girl could not be saved and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Civil Guard, who were present at the time of the fall, mentioned that an autopsy will be conducted later today to determine the cause of death. A spokesperson from the force also stated that they are looking into the incident, saying, "We are investigating the death of an 11-year-old Irish girl who died after falling from a seventh-floor terrace at a hotel in Alcudia. The first emergency calls came in around 6:45 this morning."
The Department of Foreign Affairs has confirmed that they are aware of the situation and are providing consular assistance to the family. At this point, it is still unclear how the girl ended up falling from the balcony.
This is not the first time such a tragic incident has occurred on the island. In June, a 27-year-old British man was seriously injured after falling from a balcony in Palma, Majorca's capital. It was reported that he had taken drugs prior to the fall. Just last month, a British man lost his life after falling from a balcony in Laganas, Greece. He had accidentally lost his balance while climbing on the balcony railings and fell head-first to the ground. Another British tourist also fell from a balcony on the same day and was rushed to the hospital in serious condition.
As the investigation into this heartbreaking incident continues, our thoughts are with the family and friends of the young girl who lost her life far too soon.
