Emergency services were alerted to a woman lying unconscious inside La Cartuja Sports Stadium in Seville on Tuesday, where responders later confirmed her death at 3:10 p.m., according to the El Mundo outlet.
The woman, whose identity has not been disclosed, was a long-time employee of the Junta de Andalucía which has offices inside the stadium. She had been reported missing since Monday. According to sources from the National Police, she was a civil servant in the General Secretariat for Sports and was nearing retirement. On Monday, she reportedly attended work as usual but failed to return home or make contact later that day.
Preliminary investigations suggest that she remained alone in the office after other staff had left and was unable to obtain assistance when she became unwell. Concerned family members reported her missing after being unable to reach her, prompting a search by the National Police.
Her body was discovered in the office area within the stadium complex. Emergency services, including the 112 Andalucía coordination center, the Local Police, and the National Police, responded to the scene. Unfortunately, paramedics could only certify her death upon arrival.
An autopsy has been ordered to determine the precise cause of death. Initial indications point to natural causes, though further investigation is pending.
The tragedy has deeply impacted her colleagues and those connected to the La Cartuja Stadium, a notable sports complex located on Seville’s Isla de la Cartuja, according to El Mundo. Known for her dedication to her role, she was highly regarded within the organization.
