ARCHIVED - Two injured in fire at Torrevieja nursing home
One of the casualties is in a serious condition in hospital after a blaze on the second floor of the nursing home in the Vega Baja, Alicante province.
Two people have been injured, one in a serious condition, after a mattress caught fire and spread to the rest of a bedroom on the second floor of a Torrevieja nursing home in Calle Francisco Casanovas on Wednesday evening, July 28.
It has since been confirmed by the Centre for Information and Coordination of Emergencies (CICU) that two people were actually injured in the fire - though it's not clear whether they are elderly residents or members of staff.
The fire caused extensive damage, as the video clip shows, before firefighters from the South Vega Fire Station in Torrevieja managed to extinguish the flames at 8.30pm.
