Los peces boquean en el río Segura

It looked as if the water in the River Segura was improving with folks catching carp in the mill pond at Rojales.

However, fishermen,  in a contest at Murcia,  found fish gasping on the surface at the Old Bridge and la Fica. The cause has been traced to contamination in the river at Archena.

It is thought that somebody from one of the companies that passes water into the river decided to take advantage of the rain and let contaminated water into the river rather than run it through their purifiers.
