MALLORCA TODAY - Police arrested over cyclist death

Two officers from the national police have been detained by the Guardia Civil in connection with the death of a female German cyclist yesterday. The officers allegedly left the scene of the accident and failed to report it. One of the officers, the driver**, is an inspector with the police, and gave a positive breath test for alcohol.

The two officers have appeared before a judge this afternoon. Reports now indicate that the inspector is in fact head of the anti-drugs unit within the police division for drugs and organised crime.

**As has been reported later, the driver was not the inspector but the other officer.
