A SECOND British man has been arrested over the attempted murder of a Czech national, 21, outside a Magaluf nightclub on September 19.
Two Brits aged 43 and 36 fled the scene following a brutal assault on the victim and his brother.
Both men have been accused of attempted homicide and causing serious injury.

The Guardia Civil detained the 43-year-old later that day and he was remanded into custody by a judge.
It was subsequently revealed that he had a criminal record in Mallorca.
That included his involvement in a knife fight with four fellow Brits in Magaluf back on October 31, 2013.
He was arrested a few months later during a drugs operation in Cala Vinyes and given a five-and-a-half year jail term.
The Ultima Hora newspaper reported that the second arrest was executed on Wednesday with the 36-year-old man scheduled to appear in court on Thursday.
Authorities have not disclosed where the Brit was detained.
The two Brits and two Czech tourists were thrown out of the club at around 5.15am on September 19 for getting into a dispute.
The confrontation continued in the street with the 21-year-old victim stabbed in the chest by the older Brit.
The other man punched the Czech’s brother in the face, resulting in a broken jaw.
Both Brits then ran away, with the 43-year-old detained later that Saturday afternoon in a Magaluf parking lot.
He was quickly identified as the incident was recorded on security cameras, but his friend managed to evade arrest for over a month.
