Two die after luxury block lift caves in

Two teenagers sadly died when the bottom of a glass state-of-the-art lift at a block of luxury flats caved in.

 

The couple, both aged 17, had just stepped into the elevator on the ninth floor of the Madrid block when the lift mysteriously gave way.

 

Initial reports suggest the sides and floor of the lift were constructed of glass and one of the panels shattered or dropped out last month.

 

As a result, the teenagers plummeted down the shaft and died as a result of multiple injuries.

 

Authorities say the lift had been properly maintained according to safety regulations.
