Three Valencia residents were saved from death by the family dog.It appears that a fire started in a downstairs room while the family was asleep.The family dog was upset by the smoke and barked and barked until someone wakened and realised what was happening.The house was evacuated immediatly and the emergency services were called.The building was very badly damaged and a woman living on a higher floor was treated for smoke inhalation as was a police fficer.
It is thought that the fire may have started because of candles being left burning in the downstairs dining room.The three who evacuated the building had to betreated for minor burns but thanks to their pet they are all alive and well.
Domestic violence takes many forms,usually it is not premeditated.However in Elche last week a 32 year old Moroccan woman attempted to cut the throat of her Algerian boyfriend in what appears to be a premeditated fashion.
They had been arguing but needed to get to El Altet airport in Alicante .A third party was driving them to the airport where the woman was going to get a flight to Belgium.The man sat in the front of the car with the driver and just before the car drove off the woman said that she had forgotten something and returned to the house.She brought a kitchen knife back to the car with her it seems.
During the drive the woman attacked the front seat passenger,her boyfriend ,and cut his throat.The car stopped and the man fell out of the car with blood gushing from his throat.Paramedics and police were called and the man was rushed to hospital.
The attacker was very calm and gave herself up to the police ,admitting to what she had done.She was arrested at the scene.It appears that there had been previous problems and they each had restraining orders ,one against the other but had got together again.She has been sent to prison without bail and charged with attempted manslaughter.
