Overview

  • The British friends from Bradford, aged 26 and 27, were struck just before 2am on the EI-600 between Ibiza Town and San Antonio, in an area known as Can Guillemo.
  • Lauren Holmes remains in intensive care with two broken legs, a broken arm, a fractured spine, broken ribs and a punctured lung, according to her family.
  • Ebony Cordingley sustained a brain bleed, rib and leg fractures and lung bleeding; relatives say she underwent surgery on leg wounds and has been moved out of ICU to a stable condition.
  • The driver was a 24-year-old Spaniard in a Toyota Corolla who stopped at the scene; he reportedly passed a drink-drive test, no arrests have been reported and the Civil Guard investigation continues, with drug testing and vehicle status not confirmed.
  • Families have launched GoFundMe appeals for medical costs and possible repatriation, citing an air ambulance quote of about £33,000, while the UK Foreign Office says it is supporting both nationals and liaising with local authorities.
