A 20-year-old German tourist was arrested in Santanyí, Mallorca, following an incident on October 3 where he entered a hotel room through an open terrace door. The man reportedly lay on top of a sleeping woman, prompting the couple to detain him at the hotel reception until the Guardia Civil arrived.

During questioning, the individual appeared heavily intoxicated and claimed a mobile app had challenged him to the act as a ‘test of courage’. He has been brought before an investigating judge.
