The Civil Guard arrested on October 31 two people with initials R.Z. and L.A., both foreign men, who tried to forcibly evict a woman and her one-month-old son from a house in an urbanization in Playa Blanca.
The events began that same day, after a distress call to the Civil Guard. A patrol from the Yaiza post went to the house, spoke with the woman and found that she had "several cuts on her arms and an apparent state of anxiety." In addition, they saw that she had her son in her arms, a baby of just one month old, "who had convulsions due to the use of pepper spray by the aggressors, who were inside the house at that time."
The attacked family was treated by the health resources that came to the place, who transferred the family to the Playa Blanca health center, from where they later referred the baby to the Molina Orosa Hospital.
They were carrying an axe and material to change the lock
The agents identified the alleged perpetrators of the attacks inside the house, one of them stating that the house was his property. At the time of their arrest, they were seized a backpack with DIY effects necessary to change the lock, as well as an axe and a can of pepper spray, being immediately arrested for the crimes of arbitrary exercise of their own right and trespassing.
The detainees were brought to judicial disposition of the corresponding Court, on guard duty, of the town of Arrecife.
