Personnel from the Lanzarote Security and Emergency Consortium entered a house in the municipality of Tías this Tuesday afternoon to attend to a person who, apparently, had been on the floor for "days" without being able to move. It was people close by who raised the alarm, seeing that he was not responding.

Upon arriving at the scene, in the Los Lirios urbanization, the firefighters used a ladder to enter the house through the window. Once inside, they found a man "conscious" but "lying on the floor." Then they opened the door so that the health services could access.

The man was transferred by ambulance to the Molina Orosa Hospital, although the Security and Emergency Coordination Center has not provided data on his condition, as the events occurred in a private home.
