In a tragic incident at a dam in Baños de Cerrato, Northern Spain, a mother and her grandmother drowned while trying to save a five-year-old boy who was swept away by a strong current. The mother, aged 32, and the grandmother, aged 52, leapt into the water after the child, who was paddleboarding during a family outing. Fishermen later discovered the boy clinging to a tree trunk and reported the situation to authorities. Emergency services were quickly mobilized, and while the boy was rescued unharmed, both women tragically lost their lives. The child was taken to the hospital for a precautionary check-up, while his uncle was also hospitalized due to a panic attack. The local authorities confirmed the incident and the fatalities, expressing condolences for the family involved.
