The Civil Guard of San Bartolomé arrested on the 18th two people with initials E.M.E.R. - 35 years old and with numerous police records - and A.T.F. - 52 and also with a criminal record - as alleged perpetrators of several robberies with force on things by taking the collection of billiard tables and foosball tables from a recreational room in a hotel
The investigation began on May 2, when the representatives of the hotel establishment filed the complaint at the premises of the Local Police of Tinajo, whose agents carried out the corresponding technical-ocular inspection of the affected establishment and brought the facts to the attention of the Civil Guard of San Bartolomé. Subsequently, two more robberies were reported.
For the clarification of the described robbery, the analysis of the video surveillance images of the business where the events occurred was important for the Civil Guard, among other investigation procedures, giving the agents sufficient indications for the identification of one of the perpetrators of the events, an individual from San Bartolome and known to the agents for his relationship with numerous previous criminal acts.
After carrying out several surveillance and monitoring devices, the Civil Guard also located the second perpetrator of the events, who at the time of his arrest was carrying a backpack with tools that, according to what he told the agents, were those he used in the robberies.
His possible involvement in other robberies is being investigated
Both men are attributed the authorship of three robberies with force on things, since they allegedly violated the mechanisms of billiard tables and foosball tables in the recreational room of a hotel on the island, stealing the collection of the aforementioned elements.
Both detainees were released once they testified at the police headquarters in the presence of a lawyer, remaining at the disposal of the Investigating Court of Arrecife.
The Civil Guard continues, however, with the investigation into the possible involvement of these individuals in other similar events in different businesses on the island.
