This Sunday, the Civil Guard located a body on a beach in Melilla, carried away by the strong east wind storm that hit the autonomous city. According to police sources, he is a man whose age could not be determined due to the poor state in which the body was found after a long stay at sea.
The strong waves carried the body to the beach of San Lorenzo, in Melilla, very close to the marina of the autonomous city, where the Civil Guard located it early this Sunday.
As noted by EFE, several patrols from the armed institute went to the beach shortly before nine in the morning, including several agents from the criminal unit. During an initial examination, officers were only able to determine that it was a man due to the advanced state of decomposition in which the body was found, which they covered with a blanket while waiting for its removal to be ordered.
Melilla is one of the regions affected by Storm Emilia, which this Saturday forced the activation of the yellow alert due to easterly winds of up to 60 km/h and waves of three meters until the early hours of this Sunday.
