A party hotel in Ibiza has suspended its events after a third British tourist died at the venue.
The 19-year-old, who has not been named died in a fall from the third floor of Ibiza Rocks Hotel in San Antonio in the early hours of this morning, according to police.
It comes after Evan Thomson, 26, from Aberdeen, fell and died at the same four-star hotel at a belated birthday celebration last week, on July 7.
And on April 30, a 33-year-old British woman collapsed and died in her room there.
Spanish media reported at the time that the unnamed woman was suffering health problems.
In the latest incident, two ambulances rushed to the hotel after reports the teenager had fallen around 12.30am today.
A spokesperson for the local police said this morning: 'We are investigating the death of a 19-year-old British man at a hotel in San Antonio in Ibiza.
'The alarm was raised around 12.40am this morning.
'Our officers were sent to the scene but the man in question was already dead by the time help arrived.
'The fall was from from the third floor of the hotel to an outside part of the complex.
'Court officials authorised the removal of his body at 2.40am this morning.
'The fall could be accidental based on the early information obtained from cameras but as part of the investigation possible witnesses will need to be located and interviewed.'
'The results of the post-mortem will also be important to the investigation.'
The hotel posted on its social media that they were 'deeply shocked' by the recent incidents at the hotel. More Trending
