Two British tourists arrested in Magaluf after brutally attacking a taxi driver

Two British tourists have been arrested in Magaluf, Mallorca, after brutally beating a taxi driver who refused to take them in his car due to their state of intoxication.

As reported by The Sun newspaper, they are two brothers, from the city of Bolton and aged 31 and 21. The taxi driver suffered several broken teeth, according to this media.

The incident occurred when the driver refused to take them back to their hotel because they were too drunk. It was then that the younger brother spat at the worker, and the older brother began beating him.

According to eyewitnesses, the attacker delivered a brutal flurry of kicks and punches to the taxi driver while he lay helpless on the ground, covered in blood. Another fellow taxi driver was also allegedly hit in the face by the younger brother after trying to help the first victim.

The Police detained the tourists after being alerted around 2:30 in the morning on Wednesday in the Palmanova area. The younger of the two has been released on bail after appearing in court hours after the attack.
