Girl, 1, dies after being hit by hailstones in Spain

The one-year-old girl was one of 30 people hurt after being battered by hail stones up to four inches wide in and around the Catalan town of La Bisbal de l’Emporda.

A woman remained in the same hospital today because of the injuries she suffered in the devastating hailstorm.

Most of the other 28 people who needed medical treatment are said to have suffered head injuries or cuts from the ice that needed stitches as well as broken bones.

Many cars were also damaged by the tennis ball-size stones.
