Emilio Ingrosso, 58, has run a pub in Palma, Mallorca, for 18 years.

He was on site at his own restaurant in the city when he received word of the accident.

– It is terrible, I suffer with the relatives, he says.

Emilio Ingrosso was with some friends at his own pub in Palma when one of the friends received a phone call.

That was how the whole party found out about the terrible accident that had occurred in Arenal south of Palma.

– I think it was a roof terrace. Right there there are many old buildings, says Emilio Ingrosso and continues:

– Many new restaurateurs are coming there. Then you might build out these old buildings according to somewhat dubious standards.

He says that it is only speculation, but at the same time states:

Was appalled

Emilio Ingrosso recalls that he was appalled when he heard about the accident. He himself has run a pub in Palma for 18 years.
