A Moroccan family of four died on Tuesday from carbon monoxide poisoning in the town of Torrox, in the province of Malaga, southern Spain, according to local media reports. The same sources indicate that the victims—two adults and two teenagers—succumbed to poisoning caused by a faulty household heating device. An alarm was raised early in the afternoon after the bodies were discovered in a house in the El Pontil neighborhood. Emergency services rushed to the scene, but they could only confirm the deaths of the four individuals. The Spanish press specifies that the victims were a couple in their fifties and their two sons, aged 17 and 19. Initial findings from the investigation suggest that the tragedy occurred during the night due to a buildup of gas inside the home.
