A police officer has died and another has been injured after a backpack explosion in the northern Spanish city of Oviedo.
The explosion occurred when officers from Spain's Special Canine Unit arrived to examine a suspicious backpack on Tuesday morning, police said.
Spanish police paid tribute to the officer, who has been named as Juan José, in a statement on X and said: "Our hearts are with his family, friends, colleagues and loved ones."
Officers found the backpack after they attended the scene for a separate incident, according to local media.
