After weeks of neighborhood complaints about the lack of police presence in the streets of Arrecife, on Friday night a device was deployed that dissolved several drinking gatherings in the neighborhoods of Altavista, Los Geranios and Maneje.
In total, according to the mayor, Ástrid Pérez, more than 200 people were sanctioned by the Local Police, coinciding with the beginning of the San Ginés festivities.
In addition, three premises were also sanctioned for not respecting the measures against Covid, such as closing times and capacity limits.
"We act forcefully against the drinking gatherings", defended the mayor, after several weekends in which the neighbors complained that the agents of the Local Police did not even come when they called them, alleging that they had no troops.
