According to El Confidencial, the Civil Guard has arrested two men, British nationals aged 36 and 46, accused of attempted murder following a brawl that occurred on 19 September in a nightclub bar in Magaluf, in the municipality of Calvià in Mallorca. The first person arrested was remanded in prison some days ago, while the second, apprehended on 21 October, was released on conditional bail.
The attackers set upon two Irish tourists who suffered injuries of varying severity. One of the victims sustained serious wounds after being stabbed in the chest and required emergency intervention at Son Espases Hospital for a collapsed lung. The second victim was attacked with a piece of broken glass that caused several cuts to the neck, as well as a beating that fractured his jaw. He was also treated at the same hospital.
In the initial phase of the investigation, the person responsible for the stabbing was identified and arrested, a British national residing in the area. A search of his home led to the recovery of bloodstained clothing and items of interest to the investigation. A court ordered his remand in prison. Subsequently, investigators located the second person involved, who was apprehended on 21 October.
