MALLORCA TODAY - Young British woman dies in Magalluf hotel fall

A 23-year-old female British tourist, identified as Charlotte C.S.L.F, died yesterday after falling from the third floor of a balcony at the Hotel Teix in Magalluf. The incident occurred at around 4:30am, and the woman, who had seemingly fallen head first, was pronounced dead 45 minutes later. Police have ruled out foul play.

In another incident, a 30-year-old British man fell from a fourth floor in a building in Palma. His fall was broken by a palm tree and he has survived. The death in Magalluf brings to three the fatalities of British tourists in the past couple of weeks following falls from hotel balconies.
