HOLS ISLAND SHOCK Brit tourist, 36, dies on Ibiza holiday after surrendering himself to hospital & suffering two heart attacks A BRITISH tourist has died after suffering two heart attacks on holiday in Ibiza, just moments after taking himself to a local health centre. The 36-year-old man is believed to have suffered a cardiac arrest reportedly triggered by drug use, according to local Spanish media. 2 A Brit tourist has died after suffering two heart attacks in Ibiza 2 The 36-year-old was transferred to the Can Misses Hospital (pictured) before his tragic death Alone, he made his way to the Vila health centre by Uber in the early hours of this morning but rapidly deteriorated. The Ibiza Regional Government confirmed he was transferred to Can Misses Hospital due to the severity of his condition – but suffered a cardiac arrest during the journey. He was initially resuscitated by paramedics, but once in the hospital's Emergency Department, he suffered a second heart attack and was pronounced dead at 4.55am. The Brit was reportedly admitted to hospital after suffering from drug poisoning, according to Diario de Ibiza. But the Pitiusas Health Department has not officially verified this. Ibiza, long known for its wild nightlife and beach parties, has seen rising concern in recent years over drug-related incidents among young holidaymakers. It comes after another British tourist tourist died at the famous Ibiza Rocks Hotel on the Spanish sunshine island. The 33-year-old woman died in her room at the adults-only hotel in the party resort of San Antonio on April 30. Local police and paramedics rushed to the hotel, situated just metres from one of the world's most famous sunsets, after the alarm was raised around 6.30pm. Emergency responders confirmed when they arrived the holidaymaker had gone into cardiac arrest and spent around 40 minutes practising CPR on her to try to revive her. She was declared dead at the scene after efforts to save her life proved unsuccessful. Civil Guard officers were preparing a full report on the tragedy today to hand over to a local court which has opened an investigation. The same hotel was the scene of an earlier tragedy when a 19-year-old Italian tourist of Turkish origin fell to her death from the fourth-floor. She had flown to the island the previous day and gone out partying. She is said to have tried to been trying to reach her room via a balcony from a shared area of the hotel after realising she didn't have her key card when she lost her footing and fell. Meanwhile, another Brit holidaymaker was left fighting for his life after a huge brawl at a nightclub on a Greek island. The 19-year-old was reportedly punched by a fellow Brit, 24, in the party capital of Rhodes before falling to the ground and hitting his head. The bloody Brit fled to a health clinic in the town of Faliraki but could not remember what had happened to him. He was immediately rushed to the General Hospital of Rhodes where he had surgery for internal bleeding on the brain. More to follow...
