A British holidaymaker has been arrested following a brutal assault on a taxi driver in a popular Spanish resort. The vicious beating occurred during the early hours of this morning (Tuesday) in the notorious Majorca party hotspot of Magaluf.
The incident occurred at around 2am on the Avenida Magaluf with witnesses claiming the confrontation started when three young men jumped on the bonnet of the taxi driver's vehicle. Violence flared and the taxi driver was allegedly badly beaten.
He suffered a barrage of blows and kicks to his head and body during the vicious assault, which only ceased when the young men noticed witnesses were filming the incident on mobile phones, local newspaper Ultima Hora reports. The taxi driver was left unconscious on the ground and the attackers fled.
