A 41-year-old woman has tragically died in an early morning blaze at her home on Playasol urbanisation in Puerto de Mazarrón.

A local policeman, 43, who responded to the emergency call at a duplex-style property on Calle Beleños was treated for smoke inhalation at the scene.

Emergency services were alerted to the blaze by several neighbours at around 5.20am on Thursday morning, January 20, and on arrival, police and firefighters discovered the body of a North African woman inside the duplex flat.

A post mortem will be carried at the Institute of Legal Medicine in Murcia to determine the exact cause of death, although initial indications suggest she died of smoke inhalation.

The Guardia Civil has opened an investigation to try to clarify how the fire started.

According to sources, an early hypothesis is that it was an accident and that the deceased’s body showed no apparent signs of violence.
