Tourist, 33, Falls to His Death From Seventh Floor Balcony of Magaluf Hotel
A British tourist has died after falling from the seventh floor balcony of a hotel where he was staying with family in Magaluf.
The 33-year-old died instantly after plunging from the Melia South Beach Hotel around 8.30am Thursday.
The man was staying with a member of his family at the hotel and witnesses reported hearing ‘shouting’ shortly before he fell, a police source said.
Civil guard sources said the man was ‘behaving strangely’ just before the fall.
A well-placed source close to the case added: ‘He plunged from the seventh floor of a hotel called South Beach in Magaluf.
‘At the moment it is being treated as an accident rather than a crime although the dead man is thought to have been with other people when this drama occurred.’
One unconfirmed local report said two female friends he had met the previous night while out partying were in a room at the hotel.
