A 14-year-old Irish boy has died after he fell from a second-floor balcony at a hotel in Majorca in Spain.
It is understood the teenager passed away at Son Espases Hospital in Palma on Thursday morning. He was admitted to the hospital on Wednesday following a seven-meter (20ft) fall from the Eix Lagotel in the resort of Playa de Muro.
Police sources said they believe he may have lost his balance in a freak accident while he was on a chair on his balcony. The hotel have declined to make any comment.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said it is providing consular assistance to the family.
