The victim’s body was found on Friday morning in the La Gaviota beach area, after the 112 Andalucía Emergency service received a call alerting them to the presence of a woman lying in the public road. The medical personnel dispatched to the scene could only confirm her death.
The couple, usually residing in Germany, was on a tourist route in a motorhome through various points of the Peninsula. The investigation remains open to clarify the circumstances of the death and, for the moment, the authorities have not provided further information about the case.
