A minor was found alone inside a school in Palma on a non-school day.

PalmOn November 10th, Palma's Local Police located an eight-year-old boy alone inside a school in Son Ferriol. Neither the boy nor his mother knew it was a non-school day, the City Council reported in a statement on Sunday. At 9:15 a.m., a citizen alerted the officers after seeing the boy alone inside the school grounds. When the patrol arrived, they found that the playground gate, although locked, opened when pushed. Inside, they found the boy, who explained that, seeing no one else around, he had remembered it wasn't school and had decided to wait for his mother to come back for him. The officers took him to another nearby school where an activity was scheduled. There, with the help of an educational advisor from the Regional Ministry of Education and Universities who knew the family, they contacted the mother by phone. The minor was accompanied at all times by the officers and the school counselor. The mother was later summoned to the East District police station, where she explained that she had left her son at the center and had made sure he entered the premises, as she was unaware that it was not a school day. Once her identity was verified, the police returned the minor to his mother.
