POLICE in Majorca were still searching today (Wednesday) for the mother of a seven-year-old girl who plunged 30ft from a hotel balcony.

Ports and airports have been altered as police widened the search for 45-year-old Sara Cooper, who disappeared after her daughter, Gianna was injured in the accident.

Mrs Cooper, from Foxton, her husband Martin and three of their children were staying at the three-star Hotel Samoa in the resort of Calas de Majorca.

Gianna, who attends Foxton Primary School, was taken to a hospital in Palma and after an operation was reported to be "serious, but stable".

A police spokesman said: "We are looking for the mother, but at this stage we do not want to speculate as to whether she was involved."

Police said their search involved combing an area of mountains and beaches around Calas de Majorca.
