The incident occurred shortly after 1:30am in the main area for nightlife in Tenerife, when the 112 emergency call centre received an alert from the Local Police informing them that a man had fallen from a bridge and was injured.
SUC paramedics treated him at the scene for a head injury, before taking him by ambulance to Hospiten Sur for further treatment and routine observation. It is believed that he is in a stable condition without too many complications from his fall.
