The car left the road at around 8 p.m. on Saturday evening near an industrial area in the island's capital Mahón and crashed into a wall, as reported by TV station RTVE. No other vehicles were involved in the accident. It cannot be ruled out that the car was traveling at too high a speed, it said.
At the wheel of the car was a 56-year-old islander, whose 16-year-old daughter was also in the car, as "Menorca al día" further reported, citing the emergency services. The passenger was a 46-year-old local woman. Her three children, two boys aged nine and her eleven-year-old daughter, were also killed in the accident. Further details from the police were not initially known.
