A CAR crashed into a palm tree and burst into flames last Wednesday (April 8) in the Prieto Moreno Promenade of Almuñecar, in the area of La Caletilla.

Witnesses reported that the accident occurred when two young people, a man and a woman, who were driving at high speed lost control of the car and crashed into the tree.

Both were able to exit the car without injuries.

The vehicle burst into flames shortly after and caused a big explosion. The fire brigade attended the scene shortly after and extinguished the fire.

Even though the reasons of the accident are still unknown, there are two videos recorded by witnesses that have been circulating around social media, which appear to show the two people involved having an argument minutes before the crash.

Local Police are investigating the case.
