Arrests in Tenerife, Valladolid and Palma Over Violent Robberies

Security video is propelling the investigations, with pretrial custody in Palma, an accomplice still at large in Tenerife.

Overview

  • A 19-year-old was detained in Tenerife for a filmed home assault in Guargacho, identified after a forensic review of security-camera footage months after the attack.
  • Guardia Civil investigators say a second masked assailant from the Tenerife case has not been located, and the detainee was placed at the disposal of the Granadilla de Abona duty court.
  • In Valladolid, National Police patrols intervened in a street fight on August 24, leading to three arrests for robbery with violence and injuries after a victim was attacked with a knife and needed sutures.
  • Juvenile prosecutors released the underage detainee in Valladolid, and two adults arrested on August 28 were later freed by judicial authorities pending proceedings.
  • In Palma, a 21-year-old accused of multiple street robberies targeting elderly victims was arrested and ordered into pretrial prison, with investigators noting some incidents involved an accomplice who has not been apprehended.
