A woman has died this Wednesday afternoon in Arrecife, victim of a presumed homicide. The woman, around 50 years old, was found by a neighbor "in the landing of her house", in the capital's Navarra street in the Titerroy neighborhood. According to several neighbors of the building, the victim would have been stabbed by a man. Around 5:15 p.m. the body has been lifted and the National Police has already opened an investigation to clarify what happened.

"A neighbor found her bleeding to death, already dead, in the landing and raised the alarm," says a neighbor. The victim, of Cuban origin, "had been in Lanzarote for many years," according to this neighbor, and had two children. The two young men, "one in his early twenties and the other in his early thirties," have left the house with the National Police to testify as witnesses at the police station.

An ambulance from the Canary Emergency Service and doctors from the Valterra Health Center have also traveled to the scene, according to the Canary Islands Emergency Coordinating Center, although they could not do anything for the victim, who had already died.
