A woman aged 32 and her nine-year-old daughter died in a fire at a restaurant in Cedrillas, Spain, on Sunday. The incident occurred in the lower part of a building where the bar 'Cedrún' is located.

A woman and her nine-year-old daughter died in a fire in Cedrillas, Teruel, on Sunday, according to local authorities. The incident occurred in the lower part of a building housing a bar named Cedrún, located at number 7 on Calle del Rey Juan Carlos I. The blaze spread rapidly through the structure, leading to the tragic loss of life. A third person was evacuated from the first floor due to possible poisoning, though they were later treated by emergency services. The alarm was raised by a neighbor who spotted smoke and flames coming from the awning of the terrace where the affected family lived. The child called emergency services at approximately 5:24 pm, alerting both the 112 emergency coordination center and the local health center, as well as firefighters. Residents quickly arrived on the scene to assist with rescue efforts using a ladder and attempt to put out the fire. Firefighters, including four personnel and two officers, along with the head of the provincial guard stationed at the Diputación Provincial of Teruel, responded swiftly. They were joined by a volunteer firefighter from the neighboring municipality of Alcalá de la Selva. These responders managed to prevent the fire from reaching the roof of the building. The fire was declared extinguished around 7:20 pm. Emergency medical services, including a medical helicopter, a mobile intensive care unit, and four police patrols from the Guardia Civil, were dispatched to the location. The investigation into the cause of the fire has been taken over by agents from the Judicial Police Unit of the Teruel Command of the armed forces. Witnesses have suggested that the fire might have started in the kitchen area of the establishment before spreading throughout the entire building with great intensity. The incident has sparked concern among local residents and officials. The rapid spread of the fire highlights the importance of fire safety measures in commercial buildings. Local authorities are currently working to determine the exact origin of the fire and whether there were any contributing factors such as electrical faults or negligence. The bodies of the victims will undergo post-mortem examinations to establish the circumstances of their deaths. The community is mourning the loss of the two lives, while emergency services continue to assess the damage and ensure the safety of the surrounding area. Further updates on the investigation and the condition of the third individual evacuated are expected in the coming days.
