This was the shocking moment a tourist on the strip in the party resort Magaluf, Spain, was knocked out for reportedly arguing with an alleged street seller last Friday (October 5).

The island – popular with holidaymakers and party goers – also experiences large numbers of traders that operate on the street, although this is illegal in Spain.

The argument reportedly transpired as the middle-aged man bought a necklace from the attacker but the perpetrator took it back without reason.

When the man challenged this he was on the receiving end of a brutal punch.

Nicky Smith, a local on the strip, said: "They are allowed to do it and get away with everything and the police do nothing to stop it and neither does the government."

Looky Looky man steal this guys necklace and then assaults when he tries to get it back
