A Scot has died after being run over by a tram in Barcelona. It is understood the 57-year old man was near the city’s retail centre where Pet Shop Boys were playing a gig when the tragedy happened.
Witnesses told how emergency services were alerted at about 11pm on Wednesday after the pedestrian was hit. City hall sources said yesterday afternoon the victim was a middle-aged Scot.
The information backed up local newspaper reports confirming his age and nationality. It was unclear whether the victim was a tourist or an expat living in the city.
