The National Police of Arrecife has arrested a woman and two men, with police records, as alleged perpetrators of the crimes of attempted homicide and injuries.
The events date back to the afternoon of Thursday, August 8, when the National Police received a call to the 091 telephone number, in which several citizens stated that they were witnessing a fight with a knife between several young people in a playground in the capital of Lanzarote.
The National Police, who immediately went to the scene, observed upon arrival that an ambulance was attending to two young people. Several witnesses told the officers that the aggressors had fled the scene by car. With the data provided by those present, several patrols simultaneously tried to locate the vehicle with the perpetrators. The national police officers who were at the scene interviewed the two young victims of the events, who did not provide much information to the officers, the data provided by the numerous witnesses who were in the park being crucial.
Both victims were transferred to a nearby hospital, where one of them required 12 external and six internal stitches in the neck, and the other injured party several stitches in the right hand.
A police investigation was thus initiated, in which it was possible to identify the vehicle that fled, proceeding to the arrest of the young woman who was driving it as well as one of the perpetrators who turned out to be her partner. The third perpetrator of the events was located in a house where he was being hidden by his friends.
In addition to the arrest for the events described, he had an order for return due to irregular stay in Spanish territory. The police operation culminated with the three perpetrators of the crimes of attempted homicide and injuries. Once the police proceedings were completed, the detainees were placed at the disposal of the competent judicial authority.
