Elderly woman injured in fire in Torre del Mar

An 81 year old woman had to be rushed to hospital after suffering from smoke inhalation during a fire in an apartment block at the top of avenida de la Torre in Torre del Mar.

The fire began in a fourth floor apartment and necessitated the evacuation of around fifty residents. Once the fire had been extinguished, the residents were allowed to return to their homes.

The fire is thought to have been caused by a general increase in voltage in the electrical system of the apartment block.
