An 18-year-old man died, electrocuted, as a consequence of urinating on a lamppost during the local fiestas in Bunyola in Majorca.

The incident occurred at the beginning of September at twenty-to-one in the morning.

Although an ambulance crew arrived almost immediately, owing to the fiestas having extra medical measures assigned, they could do nothing for the young lad.

The fiestas were immediately suspended and no doubt there will be an investigation into the faulty state of the lamppost.
