Theft "carelessly" of 358 lottery tickets worth 1,049 euros
The Civil Guard of the Post of Agaete, proceeded to the investigation on August 8 of a person of 60 years of age, without a Police record, as the alleged perpetrator of a crime of theft, which occurred during the months of April and May 2022, inside a hotel establishment located in the municipality of Agaete. The alleged author of the facts was introduced into the commercial premises stealing the amount of 358 lottery tickets type scratch, which were stored in a piece of furniture without a lock behind the service bar, reaching to collect some winners.
Knowledge of the facts
The Civil Guard was aware of the Events that occurred as a result of the formalization of the mandatory complaint by the injured party last June, in which he denounced the theft of 358 scratch lottery coupons inside his hotel establishment, distributed in two lots valued at 1,049 euros.
Initiation and development of the investigation
The agents carried out the appropriate Police investigations and the various steps to clarify the facts that occurred, since the injured party provided the serial numbers of the stolen shares in the corresponding complaint.
Subsequently, the pertinent inquiries are made with the company that owns the lottery tickets, with the data provided by the complainant, in which the list of winning tickets is requested and, where appropriate, the person who made the collection or seller of the lottery company that paid the amount.
However, the investigation carried out by the Civil Guard, given the information collected, was able to obtain the result that 68 of the stolen coupons were exchanged for a prize, on May 23 and 24, all of little value, between 1 and 25 euros, resulting in the total of the reward obtained of 348 euros that were paid to the same person by sellers of the lottery entity in the municipality of Agaete.
Finally, as a result of the investigations by the agents in the exercise of their citizen security functions, they had sufficient evidence to be able to identify the alleged perpetrator of the criminal act.
For all these reasons, the proceedings were sent to the Court of Guard of Santa María de Guía (Las Palmas).
