Majorca cocktail bar worker wouldn't serve Brit tourists so they launched horror attack

Two British tourists launched a horror attack on three people in a Majorca cocktail bar when a worker wouldn't serve them any more drinks. A four-page indictment released by public prosecutors before a hearing at the Provincial Court of Palma said Tommy Colm Witty, 24. and Alexander Lee Anderson, 33, along with two other "unidentified people" turned violent after the female employee refused service. The indictment stated: "They told her in an aggressive tone: "S**k my d**k" and touched their private parts, with a row starting in which both the accused, with the intention of undermining her physical integrity, pushed her and she fell to the floor and hit her head on the ground and received cuts to her leg with broken glass." A male colleague who intervened was hit on the back of the head with a glass. A second man believed to be another customer suffered neck and hand wounds after an attempt to throw a glass at him ended with it breaking as he put his arm up to protect his face, according to the indictment. CCTV footage made public at the time showed the vicious assault in the packed bar restaurant, with Witty identified as the man responsible for the glass attack. All three victims needed medical treatment for their injuries and had to have stitches, with the two employees forced to take time off work. Witty and Anderson had been warned they faced up to ten years in jail each if convicted as charged ahead of their trial in the Majorcan capital Palma. But the pair ended up agreeing a last-minute plea bargain deal over the incident at Iroko Mallorca, an upmarket restaurant and cocktail bar in Palmanova near Magaluf. Witty, who had been held on remand in prison since the early-hours attack on June 22 last year, was handed a two year suspended prison sentence and Anderson received a 720 Euros fine. The two Brits also agreed to pay the trio of victims a four-figure compensation settlement as part of the plea bargain deal. The lenient punishments they received were decided on the basis of their guilty pleas and the fact they had handed over cash to the court ahead of the hearing so their victims could be properly compensated. The holidaymakers were initially arrested on suspicion of attempted homicide over the violent 2am altercation before being charged with three counts of wounding. A spokesman for the Civil Guard said at the time of the incident last year: "Two people aged 24 and 33 have been arrested on suspicion of attempted homicide, wounding and causing serious public disorder following an incident at a nightspot in Palmanova. "Officers sent to Majorca as part of summer reinforcements were carrying out routine security patrols when they were alerted a mass fight was occurring in a premises near to where they were. They saw a man covered in blood who was brandishing a broken bottle who was attacking others present. "They quickly reduced him and got the broken bottle off him. Staff said he, his companion and two others who had fled the scene had attacked employees and two strangers. “The officers requested medical backup so they could assist the three people who had been hurt. Given the depth of their wounds and the fact they affected vital areas, they were transferred to Son Espases Hospital in the Majorcan capital Palma where they were given stitches to open wounds in their neck, head, arms and legs. "The blood-covered man, who was the 24-year-old, was arrested along with his 33-year-old companion."
