Two German men, aged 21 and 27, have been arrested for causing damage amounting to more than 2,000 euros in several rooms of a hotel in Playa de Palma, where they managed to cause a flood, when they were about to catch a plane to return to home.
The events began last Monday and continued for various days, according to the police.
They caused damage to a television set, breaking a screen, spoiled the paint work and damaged the electricity in several rooms.
On consecutive nights, the suspects flooded the room in which they were staying.
The water reached the floor below, causing damage valued at around 2,000 euros.
When the National Police wee alerted they found out that the alleged perpetrators were about to leave the island.
Agents from the Playa de Palma police station, who had taken charge of the investigation, went to Palma airport, located the pair and arrested them as the alleged perpetrators of criminal damage when they were at the boarding gate about to leave the island.

Shame on them, that's is one of the reason some Spanish people are fed up with some tourist, probably they doesn't do the same in Germany. I'm sure if an Spaniard do the same in a German hotel we would see his face in the media blaming such behaviors. Hopefully they can get punish and pay for what they did plus banned them for years to entry Spain
Few things are more demeaning than those infamous "National Police wee alerts". I've heard that Spain and Germany are working together on that, so these perps could be again subjected to the German version when they get back, which is even more degrading than the Spanish one.
As well as the punishment metered out by Spanish law courts, I would like to see the two men exposed in the German media so that their family, friends and work colleagues are also aware of their feral behaviour. The message being that if you cause trouble in Mallorca it's going to follow you home.
