| AT least 350 holidaymakers have been evacuated from an apartment block in Alcúdia (Mallorca) after a fire broke out in the lift control room.
Firefighters and police were called out to the Bellevue holiday complex in Puerto de Alcúdia at around 04.30hrs on Sunday morning.
They say the seventh and eighth floors were the worst affected, with clouds of rapidly-spreading smoke.
Luckily, nobody was hurt and no substantial property damage was reported.
Emergency services were able to bring the fire under control relatively quickly, and the tourists were able to go back to their apartments by nightfall.
