Two Dead in Separate House Fires in Andalusia as Investigations Begin

Emergency services mounted multi‑agency responses after separate blazes in Granada and Córdoba provinces.

Overview

  • A 53-year-old man was found dead after a pre-dawn fire in a single-story home in La Tahá, Granada, with early findings pointing to smoke inhalation.
  • Multiple 112 calls triggered the dispatch of Guardia Civil, firefighters from the Cádiar station, and 061 medical personnel, and a judicial protocol was opened to examine the La Tahá blaze.
  • An 81-year-old man died in a severe evening fire in a Lucena residence in Córdoba, while a female co-resident was rescued by neighbors and treated for injuries.
  • Local and national police, firefighters, and 061 responders operated at the Lucena scene, where crews began to bring the flames under control around 19:15 and continued work to secure the structure.
  • Initial inquiries in Lucena focus on a possible butane stove fault as the ignition source, with witnesses reporting the victim had mobility difficulties that hindered access to his room.
