British Man Dies after Being Thrown from a Balcony in Spain

A dad from Bournemouth has died after an altercation with a gang in a bar near his holiday home in Spain when he attempted to help his sons who were getting beaten up. The 49-year-old father had taken his twin sons out to celebrate their birthdays when a fight broke out in the pub. The reason for the fight breaking out is unknown but Mr Mallon was thrown from a 25ft balcony when he stepped in to help, leaving him in a coma for almost two weeks before his eventual death.

It’s every family’s worst nightmare, and the ultimate worst case scenario. The possibility that everything could go so horribly wrong on holiday, particularly in a town they’d visited countless times in the past and enjoyed their visits enough to have purchased a holiday home there. We like to think that a holiday is a getaway, an opportunity to forget about the hassle and stress of real life, but even in the most perfect of places these things can still happen. According to friends of the family, the gang chose to attack the twins because they were English, although this is unproven and some witnesses claim that it was merely a drunken brawl over a girl that got out of hand. Regardless of the initial reason for a fight breaking out it is worrying to think this sort of incident could happen to anyone when they thought they were going to have a relaxing holiday.

But is this incident going to influence people’s decisions whether to visit Spain and other popular holiday destinations? How many people would choose a second home in a town where people are capable of such an act? Really, these sort of occurances are a lot more likely to affect people in the UK than in a Spanish village. A whole gang of youths attacking a man in a quiet Spanish town is virtually unheard of and the most likely scenario is that it was a simple argument which got tragically out of control due to alcohol.
