British man, 34, found dead in hotel room in Ibiza party resort San Antonio during holiday with friends
A BRITISH holidaymaker has been found dead in his hotel room in an Ibizan party resort.
The 34-year-old Brit is said to have been on holiday with friends and was staying at a hotel in the centre of San Antonio.
Spanish cops are reportedly looking at the possibility the man’s death was drug-related although they are awaiting the results of a post-mortem exam to make an official comment.
The alarm was raised early this afternoon, with his friends alerting staff at the hotel he was staying at with them.
The ongoing investigation is being led by the Civil Guard.
A source close to the investigation said tonight: “I can confirm police are investigating the death of a British man who was staying at a hotel in San Antonio.”
Last month, a 35-year-old British man died after plunging from a second-floor balcony also in San Antonio.
Police sources said drugs were found in his room during a subsequent search and officers were said at the time to be working on the theory he may have been acting under the influence of drugs.
Following his death, it emerged the same man had cheated death in a 30-foot fall in the same resort nearly five years ago.
He ended up impaled on the pole of a sun umbrella in a near-tragedy in September 2018.
Horrific photos taken at the time showed the parasol deeply embedded in his leg.
In June, footballer John McKenna from Carlisle died after falling from his hotel balcony in San Antonio in a tragic accident.
The 22-year-old played for Sunday League side Scotby FC.
Tributes poured in for the young star led by Club secretary Martin Purdie who said: “We haven’t just lost a teammate, we have lost a friend”.
