Attack on Plaza Quadrado: Why is an evening walk suddenly life-threatening for students?

Answer

Why are students in Mallorca sometimes more exposed to late-night attacks?

Students often travel on foot late at night, especially when they do not have a car or want to avoid paying for a taxi. That can make them more vulnerable in quieter areas where fewer people are around. Late-night routes between bars, homes and dormitories deserve more attention in Palma and across Mallorca.
