The Civil Guard has arrested two young habitual criminals for two crimes of robbery with violence, one consummated and the other attempted, in the town of Caleta de Fuste.
In a statement, the Benemérita explained that the Events took place in the early hours of September 26 when a group of tourists returning to their hotel complex after leaving a well-known entertainment venue was intercepted by three individuals, one of whom tried to snatch the bag that a young woman was carrying on her shoulder.
However, the victim's resistance initially frustrated the action, although the assailant increased the violence; while when a friend came to her aid, the suspect tripped her and pushed her to the ground, at which time he managed to steal a high-end mobile phone, valued at 770 euros.
As a result of the attack, the young woman suffered a fracture of the radius of one hand; and after consummating the robbery, the aggressor fled accompanied by the other two involved.

For their part, the agents who were on preventive duty in the vicinity and who had seen the suspects moments before, quickly went to the scene to help the victim and collect essential information.
With this initial data, the investigators later managed to fully identify the alleged perpetrator, linked to both the consummated assault and the attempted robbery.
Three days later, at around 1:30 p.m., a new citizen alert led to another Police intervention when a passer-by reported that a young man had tried to steal his skateboard, valued at 820 euros, which was parked in front of a shop on Avenida Alcalde Juan Ramón Soto Morales.
Upon noticing the manoeuvre, the owner confronted the assailant holding the vehicle, at which point the perpetrator brandished a stone in an intimidating manner to force him to let go. When he refused, he attacked him with the object causing minor injuries, and then fled.
In this sense, the quick action of the patrol made it possible to locate him just fifteen minutes later in a nearby field, where he was fully recognized by the victim as responsible for the robbery with violence and injuries. The agents proceeded to arrest him, which also links him to the violent acts committed days earlier in Caleta de Fuste.
The detainees were brought before the courts on 27 and 30 September of this year in the Acting Guard Court of Puerto del Rosario, one of them being ordered by the judicial authority to be imprisoned without bail and notified, and the other author being released pending trial with the obligation to sign in court.
