A 20-month-old girl has died in Catalonia after being struck by a large hailstone as fierce storms raged across parts of the north-eastern Spanish region, raining down the largest stones seen in two decades and injuring dozens of people.
The girl, who has not been named, was hit by the hailstone during a storm on Tuesday night in the town of La Bisbal d’Empordà in Girona province. She was taken to a hospital in the provincial capital, but died of her injuries in the early hours of Wednesday.
