A brutal fight broke out at a beach bar in Mallorca on Saturday after a drunken man who was bothering customers attacked waiters after being asked to leave the premises. The man called for reinforcements from his family, which ended with several people throwing punches and chairs at each other, surprising passers-by.
Local media reported that several people were injured and one staff member was hospitalised after suffering a blow to the head.
Others can be heard shouting for someone to call the police as the violent confrontation ensues.
The fight broke out on Saturday night between members of staff at the Palma beach club and a drunken customer who was reportedly thrown out of the club for rowdy behaviour.
He and his family were allegedly having a party on the beach next to the bar, when the man and several of his relatives entered the premises to use the bathroom.
The man, who local media have identified as a member of a well-known gypsy clan, had begun harassing customers and service staff before the owner asked him to leave.
But he allegedly reacted violently to the owner’s request and asked his family for support, causing the dispute to spiral out of control.
According to local media Mallorca Diary, Several people who tried to intervene were injured, including one staff member who was hospitalised after having a bar stool thrown at his head.
Three Spanish men aged 48, 42 and 43 were arrested on charges of violent disorder, assault and death threats. Local media have said some of them have criminal records. The three men are said to be related.
The premises also suffered significant damage, including broken furniture, dishes and glassware.
They were also heard saying: “We are gypsies from Son Banya, there are more than 50 of us here and we will kill you all.”
This is not the only recent fight that has broken out on the beach of the Spanish island.
In May, a group of British stag and hen tourists got into a fight outside a beach club in Mallorca, resulting in eight arrests.
The violent incident involving the British party-goers occurred at the restaurant of the Balneario Illetas beach club in Calvià, the municipality in which Magalug is located.
A waiter was injured after being hit in the head and two police officers were also hurt in the violent scenes in which dozens of waiters and tourists clashed on a beach outside the establishment.
Footage of the incident showed the violent confrontation, with security guards and restaurant staff grappling with the allegedly drunk tourists on the sand, while reggaeton music could be heard in the background.
