Ms Branson shouted for help before hotel staff arrived to find Mr Evans bleeding heavily.

Denpasar police confirmed Daniel Evans was taken to Siloam hospital early on Thursday morning and later died from his injuries.

“He fell on it and was wounded by the broken glass”, Kuta police station chief Ida Bagus Dedy Januarta said on Thursday.

It’s believed Evans struck a major blood vessel when he fell through the glass at the Harris hotel in Bali.

The father was reportedly under the influence of alcohol at the time, according to The Courier Mail.

‘From his girlfriend’s statement, the liquor was brought from his country in a one litre bottle’.

“RIP Daniel Evans! We had a lovely day in Bali with you”.

DFAT confirms ‘the Department is providing consular assistance to the family of an Australian who died in Kuta, Bali’. “Love you so much my brother hope ur okay up there”, Olivia Branson wrote.

“As for the cause of death, we have to wait for an autopsy”.

Another friend, Corey Grimshaw, told his Facebook friends that Mr Evans spent the “last of his time” in Bali getting tattoos. “It’s not a problem if the family rejected the autopsy, especially when the investigation so far yielding that it’s purely accident and there’s no indication of crime at all”, Mr Slamet said.
