Two people from Britain who were on vacation have died in northern Spain after falling off the motorcycle they were riding.
The couple, both 68 and 65 years old, were in the town called Blanes in the province of Asturias when they had a deadly accident yesterday.
Emergency services were called to the A-8 motorway at about 5. 30 pm because it was raining heavily in that area.
The woman was lying on the road when another vehicle hit her. Firefighters had to rescue her by cutting her free from under the car.
The man was hit by another vehicle, possibly a lorry, after he fell off his motorbike.
They were declared dead where it happened.
The police are currently investigating something and they haven’t finished yet.
A representative for the police said today that two people from Britain died in a car crash on the A8 highway near the Balmori exit in Blanes.
They were a pair who were 68 and 65 years old.
They were going west towards the provincial capital Oviedo when the motorbike they were riding on fell over. We still don’t know why it happened and are investigating the reasons.
According to sources, it seems like they were not living in Spain and were probably just visiting on vacation.
It was not clear right away where the two British people were going when they had their sad accident.
Many tourists like to go to Blanes because it is famous for its rough and rocky shoreline. Many people think it is one of the prettiest towns in Spain.
A lot of people from this place moved to the Americas to become rich and some of them came back with lots of money and built big houses called ‘Indianas. ‘
