The Local Police of Arrecife found an axe, different viagra capsules intended for trafficking, and the stolen products in the rental car of the three individuals who allegedly robbed a perfume shop in Puerto del Carmen last Friday.

The Arrecife Local Police device was activated this past weekend when local agents were alerted by their counterparts from the municipality of Tías, in whose municipality the products were stolen.

The agents, supported by the monitoring of video cameras deployed in different areas of the capital, managed to stop the vehicle with the three alleged perpetrators of the robbery of a perfume shop in Puerto del Carmen at the intersection of Argana and Titerroy after the local agents of Tías activated the alert and transmitted the probability that these people could have fled through the roads of the capital of Lanzarote.

After the warning from the Local Corps, the agents of the capital set up a device with which they intercepted the car and the three alleged thieves. The agents stopped the car, a rental vehicle that had not been returned, and made the three occupants, adults and residents of the island, get out of it to search them.

The Local Police, upon verifying that the stolen products did not exceed 400 euros in value, the responsible parties were not arrested. However, the ocular inspection of the vehicle, and the search of its occupants, allowed the presence of substances intended for drug trafficking to be found. A bag with the appearance of viagras, and a machete, was found. Therefore, the agents initiated records so that they can be sanctioned through administrative channels, given the quantities and the destination of these substances.

Likewise, the investigation of the Local Police of Arrecife has been transferred to the Civil Guard of Tías and the Local Police of the municipality to verify if these people are related to other possible and similar crimes in the municipality of Tías.
