According to the Police, the arrested person accessed a house through the window, where he stole a safe with jewelry.

The new event was reported by several witnesses, who called the telephone 091 after observing how a young man was leaving a house in the municipality of Arrecife through the window.

The safe was located by police officers in an open field in the capital of Lanzarote, "open and still with some jewelry inside."
