The alert of a precarious boat type patera that supposedly had arrived on Wednesday afternoon to the beach of Las Malvas, in Tinajo, by its own means was a false alarm.

The call took place at about 17.10 hours in the afternoon, when agents of the Civil Guard and the Local Police alerted the Coordinating Center of Emergencies (CECOES) to report the arrival to land of this boat.

The agents who worked in the place did not find any boat or migrants in the surroundings. Therefore they have resolved the intervention with a false alarm.
