Three days of mourning have been declared for the four people who died on Thursday evening after the upper terrace at a Playa de Palma restaurant collapsed. The four people who lost their lives are a Senegalese citizen who worked as a doorman in Playa de Palma, another local worker (Spanish, aged 23) and two German female tourists aged 20 and 30. Some 25 other people were injured, seven of whom are said to be in a very serious condition. The Senegalese man had been honoured by the police a few years ago for saving a German tourist who got into difficulties while swimming in the Playa de Palma. He received a medal from the local police. At the time police said that he had acted like a hero.
