A 35-year-old woman surprised a criminal inside her apartment in Lanzarote who locked himself in the bathroom, where he remained until the arrival of the Guardia Civil.
The agents observed that the alleged thief had the door locked with a latch and, despite warnings to come out, the man refused to leave, according to the Armed Institute.
After several minutes, and as the incident was not resolved, the civil guards, with the consent of the owner, broke the lock on the bathroom door and arrested the young man, identified as A.M.P. , 22 years old and a native of Vizcaya.
The detainee was accused of a crime of attempted robbery and was placed at the disposal of the Judicial Authority in Arrecife.
