A well-placed source told The Sun: “We are still awaiting the results of the autopsy but we are treating this as a tragic accident at this stage.” The incident comes after another British tourist was rushed to hospital after falling 15ft from his hotel balcony in Mallorca last month.
The man was left “seriously injured” as he landed on his head in broad daylight after a row with friends, according to local media. The 43-year-old was quickly rushed to Son Espases Hospital in the island capital Palma to undergo emergency help. It wasn't clear whether the British man was on holiday with friends and family or if he was staying at the resort alone.
