SPAIN - The newspaper De Telegraaf reports that in the Spanish resort of Lloret de Mar an 18-year-old Dutch girl has died after attempting to jump from one balcony to another.
She fell ten metres and was killed instantly. The girl made the jump after a night out, and an autopsy will be performed to determine whether she had been drinking too much.
It was the fourth time this year that someone was killed or seriously injured in Lloret de Mar while attempting to jump from one balcony to another.
