MADRID/PARIS, Jan 24 (Reuters) - Four children aged from nine to 12 years were killed on Saturday when a sports centre collapsed near Barcelona in strong winds which battered parts of northern Spain and southwest France.
At least 11 adults were killed in separate incidents in Spain and France as gales buffeted the region for a second day, cutting power, disrupting flights and blocking roads. Forest fires, one caused by felled power lines, raged in Spain.
In the sports centre disaster, winds of more than 100 km (62 miles) per hour, ripped the metal roof off a building next to a baseball court in Sant Boi, causing the breeze block walls to collapse inwards.
