They took over from the doctor and immediately began using a defibrillator that was in their vehicle until paramedics arrived.

Paramedics continued resuscitation efforts for more than 30 minutes without any response, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The deceased has only been identified by the initials N.T.T., and is reported to have been passing through Almuñécar while on a cycling trip with friends.

He was staying at a hotel in Nerja on the nearby Costa del Sol.
