Saturnino de la Fuente, a Spaniard described by Guinness World Records as the world's oldest man, died Tuesday at the age of 112, the records agency said.
De la Fuente died at home in León, a city in northwest Spain, the state-owned news agency EFE said.
Guinness World Records named De la Fuente as the world's oldest man last September and confirmed his death on Tuesday. He was born in the Puente Castro neighbourhood of León on Feb. 11, 1909.
De la Fuente was a cobbler by trade and started working in a shoe factory at age 13.
