The holidaymakers, all 23, were mown down at 11.15am on Sunday by the motorist, 29, who was suspected of inhaling nitrous oxide — laughing gas — and said by police to hold a British passport.

Yesterday police released limited details of the woman who died in hospital following the accident near San Antonio, naming her as Victoria MM. One of the injured women, who was taken to the same hospital Nuestra Senora del Rosario Polyclinic was in intensive care. She had multiple injuries, including to the chest, abdomen, spleen, kidney and pelvis.

The third woman was reportedly treated and discharged from Can Misses Hospital. The driver of the Jeep Wrangler was arrested and yesterday appeared before a judge before being remanded in custody.
