A YOUNG Irish tourist is fighting for his life after falling victim to a brutal late-night bottle attack on the streets of party hotspot Magaluf.

The victim was rushed by emergency services to Son Espases Hospital in a serious condition having lost a lot of blood.
The horrific incident took place at 5am on August 13 outside a popular bar in Magaluf – a town on the western coast of Mallorca famed for its rowdy nightlife and cheap booze.
The Guardia Civil have launched an investigation into the brutal attacker – although the perpetrator and his friends immediately fled the scene.
