Man Dies After Ordering Glass Of Wine & Getting Dishwasher Detergent Instead

A 50-year-old man has died after he was served dishwater detergent instead of white wine. He suffered horrific burns to his windpipe, throat and stomach.

Andres Lorente visited a café in Spain over the weekend and ordered a glass of white wine but was killed by what was served to him instead.

It appears that he was served, by the waiter, an industrial cleaner. This occurred because the dishwasher detergent was poured into an empty wine bottle and put in the fridge.

The detergent was colourless and odorless so neither of the men involved realised it wasn't wine in the bottle.

The victim, a divorced dad-of-two, was taken by ambulance to a local health centre before being rushed to hospital in nearby Vinaros as his condition worsened.

Local Civil Guard officers confirmed they had arrested the cafe-bar owner on suspicion of manslaughter and released him on bail after questioning.
