Another Sad Incident
 
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worl...ball-bats.html

Not many details, but apparently another sad and unpleasant incident,.....this time in Majorca.

Careful you will be accused of being a troll putting that sort of news on here:p No doubt there will be a few posts saying he was asking for it!

I wouldn't trust the Mail if it said the sun would rise tomorrow.

Well thats a different story ain`t it.
Shagging prostitutes in the road at 4.30 in the morning, and Spanish threw some eggs at them, so they decided to have a go at them.
A fight started and he got hit on the head with a stick.

I didn`t say they were asking for it, just mentioning the un Mail part of the story. ;-)
Did you read it, or do you believe the Mail story.

I just read both stories too

it's almost like it was 2 different incidents entirely:eek:

Mail

got into a violent confrontation in the car park outside the three-star hotel he was staying in.

diariodemallorca

todo comenzó hacia las cuatro y media de la madrugada, cuando el grupo de españoles increpó a los dos turistas, que estaban manteniendo relaciones sexuales con prostitutas nigerianas en la entrada del número 14 de la calle Galió.
quick translation for those who don't understand it - 'it all started at 4.30 in the morning, when the group of spanish 'reprimanded' the two tourists, who were having sex with nigerian prostitutes in the doorway of 14 c/ Galió.'


it goes on to say that the spanish threw stones & eggs at the tourists who responded with aggression


a totally different take on it.....................

Yes, it just goes to show never trust what you read in the papers.

If it happened like it said in the Mallorca paper then it is a tragic incident, both the lives of the victim and the attackers have been ruined in this incident

It shouldnt have happened and the actions of both groups cant be excused, I have to say if I saw people sh*gging prostitutes in front of my portal I cant tell you how I would react, although that is no excuse really

Even if they were having naughty's with women no one deserves a stick over the head.

Correct, nothing to do with the Spanish, but as someone said, it won't be long on here before someone decides the Brits got what they deserved. Surprised it was only four onto two, the Spanish normally favour much bigger odds than that, it's rarely if ever one onto one.

Thanks for the unnecessary translation, but at least get it correct, it says "eggs and stones". Whilst the eggs wouldn't do much damage, I imagine stones, especially if they are of any size, might just get you a tad upset. When the guy got killed in Cómpeta by about twenty local yobs there were also those that said he must have deserved it. ¡Curioso!:confused:
