A small boat with about 13 people arrived past midnight this Monday in the Los Ancones area, in the municipality of Teguise, of which three minors have been arrested, while the rest of the occupants fled, according to the Civil Guard.

Around 00:30 this Tuesday, the Local Police of Teguise alerted the Civil Guard to the arrival on the coast of Los Ancones of a six-meter-long boat, being intercepted right on the shore. Apparently, three men of Moroccan origin who claimed to be 16 years old were arrested, while the rest of the occupants (about 10 according to the detainees themselves), fled taking advantage of the darkness.

The Civil Guard, as is required in these cases, has established a search device to try to arrest the rest of the occupants.
