The wind recorded this Friday, March 6, caused incidents in different parts of Lanzarote, among them damage to a windmill located in Costa Teguise that required the intervention of the Security and Emergency Consortium.

Subsequently, the Local Police of Teguise were notified so that the City Council's technical service carries out the definitive repair.
