REUTERS/Nacho DoceBARCELONA: Dozens of partygoers danced on Friday on a popular beach near central Barcelona, some without wearing masks or observing social distancing in defiance of COVID-19 restrictions, police said on Saturday.
Meetings of more than six people in public areas are banned in Spain's northeastern region of Catalonia and offenders can face fines of 300 to 600 euros , police said. "Our officers advise people where there are big groups of people that they are contravening restrictions and sometimes if they do not put on masks or move away, they can face fines," said a spokesman for Catalan regional police. He did not say if anyone had been fined in this instance.A police office speaks with tourists after vacating a party at Barceloneta beach, amid the coronavirus disease outbreak, in Barcelona, Spain April 2, 2021.
Nothing like a repeat of last year's 'Spring break' in multiple regions in the world to cause another outbreak.
