Local police are investigating the incident.
A teenager from County Limerick has sustained serious injuries after plunging from a height of 39 feet in a resort in Spain.
19-year old Jack Walsh, from Askeaton, fell from a hotel balcony in the Spanish holiday resort of Santa Ponsa, Mallorca, in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
It's understood that Walsh had only been in the country hours before the incident occurred. He had travelled to the resort to celebrate finishing a repeat Leaving Certificate exam he'd taken that week.

Cronicabalear says medics were called to the scene at 4.25am on Monday after a call was made to the island's emergency services.
The paper goes on to say that the teenager is currently being cared for at Son Espases hospital, where he is in a “very serious” condition in hospital after falling “from a height of about twelve metres in Santa Ponsa, Mallorca."
Cronicabalear reported it three similar incidents have occurred in the area in the past ten days.
Just last week,
an Irish youth fell to his death from a balcony in the Spanish resort of Magaluf, Majorca.
It's understood that the 20-year-old had, like Walsh, arrived in Majorca just hours before local police believe he fell to his death in the Eden Roc apartments.
His apartment block is the same one from which Scottish teenager Natalie Cormack died in April after falling from a seventh-floor ledge.
