An eleven-year-old girl from Ireland died after falling from a balcony at Mallorca. The child reportedly fell from the seventh floor of a hotel in Alcúdia in the north of the Spanish Balearic Island, plunging around 20 meters into the depths, according to regional newspapers "Diario de Mallorca" and "Última Hora", quoting hotel spokespersons. At that time, the parents were still asleep.
