The Local Police of San Bartolome de Tirajana have arrested five young men from the island on suspicion of a wave of muggings and beatings affecting business owners, employees and visitors of Playa del Ingles during the past two months.
Police sources confirmed last week that the arrests occurred on Friday as the result of a special operation which took place in the vicinity of Paseo Maspalomas Costa Canaria, police having caught the perpetrators red handed during an assault.
The arrests came just in time for the opening of Maspalomas Carnival. Of the five detainees living in el Lomo del Gato, in the town of Jinรกmar, three have been held while two others have been released because they are minors. Police believe that
this gang may have been responsible for at least four reported beatings, in which some of their victims having suffered both legs broken, broken ribs and severe bruising to the face, among the serious injuries. Entrepreneurs in the Yumbo Centre in Playa
del Ingles, the area where these violent incidents have occurred, denounced the wave of robberies and assaults suffered by their employees and customers, the most recent of which occurred last Friday according to a spokesman.
