American tourist survives headfirst fall in Switzerland

A British tourist who recently died under suspicious circumstances while on holiday in Greece may have been the victim of murder, according to reports.
The 44-year-old man was found dead on the Greek island of Spetses, reportedly floating in the island’s bay, according to local authorities.
A coast guard official told Reuters the victim was found with a head wound and the British national was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.
A police source told The Sun that the man “appears to have been hit on the left side of the head”, with the source adding that the 44-year-old may have been unconscious before entering the water.

“What is certain is that he sustained injuries to the left side of his head and was almost certainly unconscious when he fell into the water.”
The 44-year-old man was reportedly in Greece to take part in a classic yacht regatta, with officials adding that the man’s head wound was “mysterious”.
