A British father has sounded the alarm after his son was allegedly attacked while holidaying in Benidorm.
William Miskelly, from Belfast, took to social media to share photos of his son’s injuries following the incident on Saturday.
The images show the holidaymaker’s arms and legs covered in deep bruises and scratches.
William said: ‘Please can I advise people to be careful around the Dynastic Hotel area.
‘My son was mugged and had his phone stolen. They emptied his bank account of £1650.
‘All he can remember is that there was two of them. And they drive a white ford Fiesta.’
Fellow travellers reacted to the post to say they have also fallen prey to robbers in Benidorm.
John Clarke said: ‘I had my Rolex snatched from my wrist in 2022, 1am in morning with my partner, returning to our apartment, French-speaking Moroccan guy, seemed friendly, then grabbed my wrist, watch gone in seconds. Reported to Police, but heard nothing.’
Another said: ‘My father just returned home from benidorm, he interrupted a robbery in the floor below him.
‘Police came and wouldn’t even look at the apartment because the owners needed to report it, they told him.’
