A Palma Airport worker in Mallorca broke both wrists after a passenger allegedly pushed him to the ground during a dispute at check-in in early September.

The row began when the employee saw the passenger bypassing the queue and told him to wait his turn, the National Police said. The passenger allegedly responded with a threat before shoving the worker, who fell and suffered fractures to both wrists.

After the worker filed a complaint, the investigation group at Palma Airport’s border post reviewed security-camera footage and spoke to witnesses. Officers identified and located the suspected attacker, then arrested him last Friday on suspicion of causing injury.
