Man drowns on Mojacar beach

A 59 year old man from Madrid drowned on Bancal beach in Mojacar (down towards Hotel Best Indalo) this afternoon after he was dashed against rocks by strong currents.

Other bathers raised the alarm when they realised the man was in trouble and lifeguards rushed to the area, but the man had suffered a severe head wound from the rocks. All they could do was bring him back to the beach and perform CPR.

But they were unable to revive the man and he was pronounced dead at the scene at about 4:20 pm.
