JAKARTA - British tourists were arrested on charges of attacking and destroying the cell phone or cellphone of a female police officer or policewoman in the Magaluf beach area, Spain.

Quoting Mirror.co.uk, the 18-year-old tourist was arrested while arguing with other tourists. He was on top of another teenager's body shortly after throwing his boxing.

He first attacked the police officer who separated him. His hands grabbed the male police arm and allegedly pushed the policewomen to the ground.

The policewoman reportedly suffered injuries to her knees and elbows. Meanwhile, the policewoman's cellphone was damaged by the incident.

The British teenager was brought to court on Tuesday, July 9 local time. He was later released on bail and seizure of passports while police carried out further investigations.

However, the person concerned has not been able to travel far away. The police only allowed the teenager to leave the Magaluf area if he had handed over the money as a deposit to pay for the policewoman's cell phone damage.

In this case, the teenager was charged with resisting arrest, vandalism, and injuring officers.
