A German tourist of about 60 years old was injured in the head this Sunday after falling debris from the facade of a building. The person was on the terrace of an ice cream parlor on Avenida Mancomunidad de Arrecife at about 5:00 p.m., when the granite slab came off, according to CECOES.
The health services went to the place to attend to the injured person and transferred him to the hospital.
Later, the firefighters reviewed the state of the facade and removed several plates with risk of falling. In addition, they recommended the establishment to temporarily close its doors due to the risk of detachment of another slab.
