Elena and her friends decided, as many others, to spend Monday night at Mojacar, one of the most popular nightclubs of Levante Almeria. She was leaving Garrucha for Madrid on the last day of her stay. She didn’t realize that this night of celebration would turn out to be a true odyssey. He would go home with a fortnight worth of staples.
IDEAL spoke to a 23-year old Madrid resident about their arrival at the club at half past two in morning. He said that there was “a lot of capacity everywhere” and that it was impossible to move either inside or outside. They were placed next to the stage, where the DJ of the evening played, and the metal swing was suspended above them.
He recalls the pulley hanging from the ceiling and a rope that looked like a wire or cable. He also claims that several people have climbed onto the seesaw during their time there. This newspaper was able to confirm that Mandala shared the images on social media, but it is no longer possible to find them. Elena claims she eliminated them when the swing fell on her and her friends, as well as other people around her.
“Suddenly, I notice that I have received a blow to my head. What I see is a boy lying on the ground who was unconscious,” she recounts.
He touched his head and realized that his hands were stained by blood. It took him some time to realize it was his. “Everything happened very quickly. He said, “I have died,” and he relates the first thought she had when he saw that there was an open wound in his head. They explained that they were able to get out onto the street and left three of their friends behind, as well as the stranger who was still unconscious. My friend asked the DJ to turn the music down so she could speak to 112, but he refused. He was critical of how the club acted in the face this incident and he did not stop
Elena and her friend, who was “losing consciousness” at the door, tried to call Emergencies to send an ambulance. But, eventually, they indicated that it was one the doormen who took them to the center for Health. “They gave me four points and then they added three more in the ambulance. Finally, they got to 15 in the hospital.”
He reported that five of his seven friends were going to Madrid to report injuries of different consideration yesterday. He explains that they tried to report the incident to the Civil Guard, but they refused to take them in. He claims that they went to Garrucha as well as Vera. He claims that the young man who was unconscious in the club would have filed a complaint about what happened in Aguilas (Murcia) yesterday.
IDEAL tried to reach the Mandala Beach responsible parties but they have yet to comment.
