British teen declared brain-dead after hotel balcony fall in Athens

A 17-year-old British teenager was declared brain-dead after falling from a first-floor hotel balcony in Halandri, a northern suburb of Athens, early Friday. The incident occurred around 5 a.m., and emergency services transported the teenager to Athens' Red Cross Hospital, where he was diagnosed with unsurvivable brain injuries. Local police are investigating the circumstances of the fall. Authorities have arrested a 37-year-old kiosk employee, who is facing charges of fatal endangerment and violating laws related to the sale of alcohol and tobacco to minors. Police allege that the employee sold alcohol to the teenager after the minor presented a fraudulent driver's license as proof of age.
