Man falls to his death from balcony while hanging Christmas lights in Spain

A man died in Vigo on Saturday afternoon after suffering a fall while hanging Christmas lights on the balcony of his home, located in the Spanish municipality of Valadares.

Apparently, the victim was placing the festive decorations on a balcony of the house, which did not have a railing, and plunged to the ground from a height of about four metres. He suffered a severe blow to the head that caused his death shortly afterwards.
