Female party boat organiser plunges into sea as mass Brit tourist brawl erupts after rowdy thugs are booted off vessel
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THIS is the dramatic moment a boat party organiser ends up in the sea during a mass brawl in Ibiza. The wild scene, filmed by a shocked bystander, is said to have forced the party boat to cancel its scheduled trip. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Two men break into a fight on the dock near where the party boat is moored Credit: Solarpix 5 One man takes a plunge after being punched and pushed by another man Credit: Solarpix 5 The man then jumps into another fight - and a woman ends up in the water Credit: Solarpix Shocking footage from the Ibizan party resort of San Antonio showed an unidentified man pushing and punching another into the water before getting involved in another fight further along the dock. A woman, described locally as the party organiser, also unexpectedly ended up in the water. A witness posted the video on TikTok, with the title: 'English people in Ibiza' before adding, 'English people are so problematic'. When asked by other users how she knew their nationality, the witness replied: 'Because I was there.' A Brit in the comments added: 'English people are very educated, we are not all the same,' which the witness acknowledged was true. On Sunday, another explosive fight broke out in the same resort at the popular Marco Polo hotel. In the shocking footage, a man can be seen throwing a flying chair onto a woman's head as she's in the pool. A group of lifeguards and security attempt to intervene, but their efforts amount to nothing as the man is seen ignoring them. In May, an easyJet passenger was left petrified after a group of rowdy "drunk" Brits turned her Ibiza flight into a "nightclub". Spaniard Erika Barrachina claimed she suffered a "panic attack" after having to cope with "scum" passengers. Shocking moment chair-tossing pool brawl erupts at Ibiza hotel with tourist bashed in head and knocked into water In a no-holds-barred message alongside a video of the packed plane where passengers could be seen banging on luggage compartments above them and yelling: "Come on Ibiza", the Spanish speaker said: 'My flight from London to Ibiza was absolutely horrible. 'I was scared. A plane full of real English animals. 'Everyone standing, screaming, guys hitting each other, drinking bottles of alcohol one after the other and stopping the flight attendants from doing their job. Real hell. 'This video is the just the end because I couldn't film what happened during the journey. 'Before boarding the plane they were drunk and high. Taking pills and drinking alcohol at the same time, which I saw with my own eyes." She added: 'We don't want this type of tourism in Ibiza, they should stay at home." It comes as locals in Ibiza took part in an anti-tourist demonstration just over a week ago. 8,000 people took to the streets in the Majorcan capital Palma. Around 100 people with drums surrounded upmarket eatery Cappuccino Borne next to a McDonald's in the centre of Palma after their protest finished. Police moved in to ease tension as the demonstrators held up cardboard posters reading: 'As You Come I Have To Go.' The protestors also chanted 'The Streets Will Always Be Ours', Go Home' in English and 'No Balconing' in reference to the young tourists who have dangerously jumped from hotel balconies into swimming pools or tried to climb between balconies under the influence of alcohol and drugs. 5 Protesters shout anti-tourism slogans at tourists at a bar in Palma Credit: REUTERS/Francisco Ubilla

LA cops forced to delete ‘offensive' post about US strikes on Iran and admit it was ‘unacceptable' in lengthy apology
The post was edited before it was removed entirely MISGUIDED SYMPATHY LA cops forced to delete 'offensive' post about US strikes on Iran and admit it was 'unacceptable' in lengthy apology Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOS Angeles police have been forced to delete a social media post about the Iran conflict that they called "offensive and inappropriate." Cops issued a lengthy apology for speaking out on the issue and falsely suggesting people were killed after the US launched airstrikes on three nuclear facilities in Iran.

An original version of the post read, "Our hearts go out to the victims and families impacted by the recent bombings in Iran. "While this tragic event occurred overseas, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is closely monitoring the situation alongside our local, state, and federal partners." No deaths have been confirmed in the US airstrikes on Iran. A few moments after the post was shared, it was edited to remove mentions of Iranian victims and families. The statement was also edited to say police were "closely monitoring the situation overseas." Then, the post was deleted entirely after backlash from social media users, some of whom called the message "embarrassing" and "pathetic." LASD then shared an apology for the post. "We are issuing this statement to formally apologize for an offensive and inappropriate social media post recently posted on our Department social media platforms regarding the ongoing conflict in Iran," police said. "This post was unacceptable, made in error, and does not reflect the views of Sheriff Robert G. Luna or the Department.

"Our mission remains solely focused on protecting public safety and serving our diverse communities." The department said it launched an internal review to figure out how the post was created and published. Police also said they're working to strengthen their social media policies and "ensure that any future communications align with our Department's standards of professionalism, respect, and accountability," the apology added.

It comes after Los Angeles law enforcement officials are already facing backlash for how they handled anti-ICE protests in the city, which saw violence and looting break out earlier this month. The demonstrations were peaceful at first, but escalated after President Donald Trump sent in the National Guard as some rioters lit self-driving vehicles on fire. Cops and local politicians were slammed for failing to keep the peace during the rallies. 5 Sheriff Robert Luna, right, holding a news conference in downtown Los Angeles on September 20, 2023 Credit: Getty 5 Los Angeles Police Department officers firing non-lethal weapons at protesters on No Kings Day protests on June 14, 2025 Credit: Getty CONFLICT IN IRAN The LASD's original post about Iran was shared just hours after Trump entered the conflict between Israel and Iran on Saturday night. He sent American warplanes to target Iranian nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. It's unclear if there have been any casualties in the attack, but Trump said the sites were "obliterated." He wrote on Truth Social after the strikes, "We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. "All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. "Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!" Iran has warned that there will be consequences for the strikes.
