A German tourist was arrested by police in Bunyola on Friday following a chase of the truck he had stolen in Palma.

Around 7.30am, he took the truck from the Mercapalma wholesale market. He drove erratically, veering off into various roads once he was in Bunyola.

The truck hit a concrete pillar on the Passeig Antoni Estarellas in Bunyola with such force that the pillar was bent backwards.

He said he had been partying all night and that someone had put drugs in his drink.
