A British woman has died after plunging from the sixth floor of a hotel in Majorca.
Police are probing the 35-year-old holidaymaker’s death in the incident on Sunday morning.
Emergency services were called around 9.30 am and paramedics raced to the Hotel Bellver in the Majorcan capital of Palma but could do nothing to save her.
Local reports said the unnamed tourist had plunged from a sixth-floor window at the four-star hotel on the seafront promenade.
It was not immediately clear if she was staying at the hotel and she has not been named.
A spokesman for the National Police in Majorca, the force investigating the death said: “I can confirm an investigation has been launched into the death of a British woman at a hotel in Palma this morning.”
While the hotel overlooks the seafront promenade, the unnamed woman plunged from a window at the back of the building above a street called Calle Marques de la Cenia.
Well-placed sources confirmed she was staying at the hotel with a person believed to be her partner.
It was not immediately clear if that person, who will be interviewed by police as part of their inquiry, was in the room she plunged from at the time.
The area where the woman landed has been cordoned off. An autopsy is expected to take place on Monday or Tuesday.
On August 17 at the four-star Hotel Melia Palma Marina, Palma, another woman died after falling from the eighth floor.
