UK holidaymaker falls to his death after night out in Spain
The 28-year-old tumbled off a wall in front of his horrified girlfriend near Magaluf, Mallorca
Sadly, another tragedy has befallen the Spanish islands with the fatality of a 28-year-old British tourist, who fell to his death in front of his girlfriend after a night out in Mallorca. The incident, which occurred at a four-star hotel in Palma Nova, near Magaluf, has left the community shocked and saddened.
During the early hours of the morning, the young man and his partner were returning to their hotel, the Reverence Mare, after an evening out. However, tragedy struck as he tripped and fell over a wall by the hotel entrance, plummeting 15 feet to the ground next to the spa pool.
The incident, which took place at around 7am, prompted an immediate response from emergency services, but sadly, the man could not be saved. The trauma of witnessing such a horrific event took a toll on his girlfriend, who later had to be treated for an anxiety attack by paramedics.
The Guardia Civil is currently leading an investigation into the incident, with authorities treating it as a tragic accident at this stage. A well-placed source shared that they are awaiting the results of the post-mortem to determine the exact cause of death.
The adult-only Reverence Mare Hotel, located in the heart of Palma Nova, is known for its stunning beachside location. Yet, despite the beauty of the setting, the mood among guests and staff is sombre as they come to terms with the devastating loss.
Just last week, a Senegalese fisherman was arrested in the nearby village of Port d’Andratx in Mallorca for sexually assaulting a 21-year-old British holidaymaker.
According to the Guardia Civil, the young tourist had enjoyed a few drinks with friends in the port and was abused by the man, who was inebriated, as she walked home to her apartment.
