A British tourist has died after falling from a balcony at a hotel, the second Briton to die at the same Spanish resort in three days. Benjamin Harper, 28, from Twickenham, south-west London, fell to his death at the four-star Sol Antillas hotel in Magaluf, Majorca, on Friday. It is believed that Harper, a roofer, had gone out on to the balcony for a cigarette before leaning over and falling to his death while on a stag do. His death came three days after another Briton, Adam Atkinson, 20, from Castleford, West Yorkshire, died in the resort after reportedly falling down stairs. Harper's father, Kenneth, 64, told the Mail on Sunday: "It looks like he popped out on to the balcony for a cigarette, leaned over and fell. No foul play was involved. "His mates are really cut up about it. They are coming home tomorrow and coming here to see me." The hotel where Harper died offered no comment. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office said : "We are aware of the death of a British national in Majorca, Spain, on 20 April. We are providing consular assistance to the family at this difficult time."
