National Police agents have arrested R.S.S.E., 40 years old and with 17 police records, as the alleged perpetrator of the attempted robbery inside a vehicle parked on public roads in Arrecife. He pried open one of the doors of a parked car to take objects from inside. A witness provided the physical characteristics of the individual to the agents, who was able to be located and arrested in the vicinity.

The events unfolded after a citizen called the 091 telephone number and reported that she observed how an individual, of whom she provided physical characteristics, was prying open the passenger door of a vehicle parked on public roads in the capital of Lanzarote with his hands. The police officers who went to the scene verified the existence of a car with one of its doors pried open.

The agents located an individual hidden behind a garbage container in the vicinity, with similar physical characteristics to those provided by the citizen, so they proceeded to identify him. At that same place, the officers were required by a woman who stated that moments before she had seen that individual prying open the door of a vehicle, and that when she noticed the police presence, he had hidden behind the garbage containers. Therefore, the man was arrested as the alleged perpetrator of a crime of robbery with force in an attempted degree.

After instructing the corresponding police report, it was sent to the competent Judicial Authority. The police intervention was carried out by agents assigned to the Arrecife Police Station.
