Brit ‘seriously injured’ after falling from balcony in Mallorca

A British man plummeted from a balcony in the Spanish island of Mallorca after reportedly taking heaps of ‘cocaine and ketamine’.

The 27-year-old was left with ‘serious injuries’ after falling from the first floor of the flat in the capital Palma.

Footage from the scene of the incident shows a pool of blood on the pavement on the side of the building where he fell.

The victim was rushed to hospital after paramedics stabilised him at the scene.

He was shown on a stretcher before being wheeled into an ambulance and taken to the island’s Son Espases Hospital.

It was not immediately clear this morning if the man was holidaying at the flat or lived at the address.

The alarm was raised just before midnight yesterday.

Local reports said the patient told police, while on the way to the hospital, that he had consumed cocaine and ketamine.

Neighbours reported seeing him leaning out of a window at leasttwice before he plunged to the ground head-first.

Police in Ibiza are conducting an ongoing investigation into what happened.
