Heavy rainfall claims another life in Andalucía
From Typically Spanish
The heavy rainfall which hit Marbella on Wednesday has claimed the life of a local resident. She died at her home in Los Naranjos Urbanisation, in Nueva Andalucía, when she was crushed beneath a wall which was knocked down by the force of one metre of water of the other side.
It happened at 3am, when she and three members of her family were trying to sweep the water away from their patio.
Reports say that she was 43 years old and was from Russia.
She was the second victim of flash flooding in Andalucía this week: a Swiss woman was found dead on Monday after her car was swept away by a raging torrent in Huelva. One occupant of the car remains missing.
