POOL TRAGEDY Brit man killed after hitting his head as he jumps into friend’s pool on the Costa Blanca
The Sun says: A BRITISH man has died after hitting his head as he jumped into a friend’s pool on the Costa Blanca in Spain.
Police launched an investigation into the tragedy, which happened today at around 5.45pm on a residential estate in Benissa, near the holiday resort of Calpe, north of Benidorm.
It is not yet clear if the man was on holiday in the area or a resident, although sources said he was visiting a friend.
The man is believed to have hit his head on the bottom of the pool, which is thought to be just over three feet deep.
Civil Guard officers are still at the scene and the body has yet to be removed on the orders of a local investigating judge.
A spokesman for a regional government-run emergency services coordination centre said: “The alarm was raised just before 5.45pm this evening.
“The message received was that a man was unconscious after jumping into a shallow pool on a residential estate in Benissa and hitting his head on the bottom.
“An ambulance was mobilised. Local police officers tried to revive the man using CPR before medical responders arrived to discover he still had no pulse.
“He was confirmed dead at the scene.
