Palma.—The Guardia Civil and Andratx Local Police have opened an investigation into  the cause of a fire which broke out in a garage in Andratx in the early hours of yesterday morning.
The owner of the garage told the police: “we heard a big bang. Someone was kicking in the door to the garage, they broke open the lock and then threw something covered in flames inside, sparking the fire.”
The alarm was raised at 5.10am and the fire was in the ground floor garage of the property.
Up stairs, on the first floor, a German couple and their two children were fast asleep.
Fortunately, woken by the noise below, they were able to get out of the building and raise the emergency services.
The Local Police, Guardia Civil and fire fighters from Santa Ponsa were on the scene quickly.
