This Thursday afternoon, a search device has been activated for a swimmer on Los Pocillos beach in Puerto del Carmen, as reported by the Emergency Consortium.

Around 6:30 p.m., a hotel receptionist called CECOES after seeing a man asking for help from the sea. After the alert, agents of the Civil Guard, Local Police, firefighters, Maritime Rescue and the GES helicopter have moved to the area. 

So far the search has been unsuccessful. For now, only a backpack has been found in the area but without documentation.
