The body of an unidentified man was found in the water of the Paseo Rey de España beach in Fuengirola on July 28.
A call was made to the emergency services around 4.30am on Sunday. An eyewitness reported a man who seemed to be intoxicated or under the influence of alcohol, looking for a fight at the Teresa Zabell square.
The man had allegedly tried to rob a taxi driver and was banished from a bazaar as he was provoking an argument and disrupting the public. 15 minutes after the report, the emergency services received another call, reporting a body floating in the water of the Fuengirola beach.
As the police investigated the incident, multiple eyewitnesses confirmed that the drowned man was the same reported for disruptions. No information has been revealed about his identity and his age remains unknown. The police are currently investigating the case.
