A 32-year-old man has been arrested this past weekend for allegedly assaulting and running over his partner in Arrecife. This has been confirmed by sources from the National Police to La Voz.
The events took place at one o'clock in the morning this Monday on Leopoldo Von Buch street, formerly known as Crucero street, in the capital's Altavista neighborhood.
According to the version of several witnesses, the aggression occurred after a couple's argument between the man, of Belgian nationality, and his partner of Colombian nationality. According to these same sources, the man allegedly pushed his girlfriend, she stood in front of the vehicle and he ran her over.
The woman had to be transferred to the Doctor José Molina Orosa Hospital with a bleeding wound on her leg. It is being investigated as a possible case of gender violence.
