Local authorities in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, have revealed that the tragic collapse of a building housing a bar and restaurant club, resulting in the death of four individuals, was due to the structure lacking the necessary authorization. The incident, which occurred last Thursday, claimed the lives of two German women aged 20 and 30, a 33-year-old Spanish woman, and a 44-year-old Senegalese man.
According to Mayor Jaime Martínez, the collapse of a first-floor terrace was likely caused by excess weight and substandard construction work on the building. The Spanish woman who lost her life in the accident was reported to be an employee at the club.
