A 19-year-old English teenager was beaten over the head with a rock before being raped near a nightclub in Barcelona, Spanish media reports have claimed. The shocked young woman was taken to hospital after being found on the street near the venue, known as Input, with a head wound and cuts and bruises to her knees.
Security guards are understood to have triggered the alarm at 5am on Saturday morning – an hour after she left the nightclub.
She apparently told them she had been hit over the head with a rock.
She was described by some reports as “English” and by others as “Anglo-Saxon”.
However, Catalan Police have yet to reveal her nationality and rarely confirm where the victims of sexual attacks come from.
Nevertheless, they are believed to be searching for two men caught on CCTV.
No arrests have yet been made but police have obtained DNA evidence which they are using for the investigation.
Input is located near the Romanesque monastery of San Miguel at the eastern end of Barcelona’s Poble Espanyol attraction.
