A group of rowdy British tourists are being hunted by police after getting a battering from street sellers on the party island of Ibiza.

San Antonio was the scene of the orgy of violence which appeared to show the holidaymakers coming off worse as they suffered a barrage of kicks and punches.

Town hall officials in San Antonio confirmed the battle had occurred around 6.30am on Sunday (July 30) by the resort’s main beach called S’Arenal.

Several men laid into a bare-chested rival described locally as a British tourist, smashing him around the head with their fists and kicking him back onto the ground as he tried to get up.

A friend sprinted across to intervene and tried to land a punch himself on one of the aggressors before running away and losing his balance on the sand.

Moments earlier a group of young men and women, believed to be from the UK, were filmed fleeing the area and an unidentified man who appeared to be lying unconscious was found on the beach near to where the main violence was taking place.

It was not immediately clear if he was one of the group described as the street sellers or a tourist.

The footage of the brawl showed bottles were thrown at the height of the violence, which smashed on the ground near to where the physical assaults were occurring.

Although there were reports of casualties, those caught up in the melee were said to have fled before police reached the scene.

Local town hall-employed police are now analysing CCTV footage to try to identify those involved so they can try to make arrests.
