Ceiling collapse at Madrid club injures 26

The false ceiling of Madrid club Sala Live collapsed at the weekend, injuring 26 people as 16 square metres of plaster and spotlights from a platform fell on the crowd.

Of the 26 people needing medical treatment, 15 have now been discharged, while 11 have been transferred to other hospitals for X-rays and stitches.

The accident occurred at 1:30am on Sunday morning during the Latin music party La Suegra. At the time there was 180 people in the 700-capacity club.

It is not currently known what caused the collapse, with local authorities investigating the incident now.
