Brit boy, 17, sexually assaulted by Spanish taxi driver
The teenager was reportedly attacked by a cab driver in Magaluf
Spanish police are trying to track down a taxi driver who allegedly sexually assaulted a male British holidaymaker in his cab in the Mallorca resort of Magaluf. The 17-year-old boy was brought to a local police station by his mother to report the attack.
According to the teen, he hailed a taxi on the Punta Ballena party strip after a night out and on the way back to his hotel, the taxi driver began touching him inappropriately before demanding that he perform sex acts on him. As the holidaymaker tried to push the man off, a scuffle ensued and the Briton was physically assaulted by the cabbie, hitting his head on the car door as he fled the vehicle.
A spokesperson for the Guardia Civil confirmed that officers are now trying to track down the alleged aggressor.
“An allegation has been made and we are investigating,” he added.
Last weekend, another British tourist was arrested for his part in a brutal street brawl on the same Magaluf strip. The shocking fight spilled out into the streets and resulted in one young man being knocked unconscious with a serious head wound.
And Magaluf’s somewhat dubious reputation was further tarnished last week with the arrest of a UK holidaymaker over the alleged sexual assault of another tourist at a popular central hotel.
The 20-year-old woman, also British, claimed that her 48-year-old attacker approached her from behind and put his hands down her pants. She had reportedly never met the man before.
