The Canarian Police conducted an operation in the Cruz de Piedra industrial estate, in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, which resulted in the identification of two men and the arrest of one. During the intervention, substances believed to be narcotics were found, seized, and are awaiting forensic analysis.
One of the individuals displayed evasive behavior from the outset, attempting to conceal his identity by providing false personal data and claiming to have no documentation. In response, officers inspected the vehicle he was using, finding a wallet with his authentic identification, which allowed them to verify his true identity.
“"These types of actions are part of the usual surveillance and control tasks that are continuously carried out in the archipelago."
Following identification, it was confirmed that the arrested individual had three active judicial warrants, issued by the Criminal Court No. 4 and Investigating Courts No. 5 and 7 of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. These warrants were related to an alleged public health offense and two road safety offenses. The verification of these requisitions was carried out in coordination with the CECOES 1-1-2 Operations Room.
The General Corps of the Canarian Police emphasizes that these actions are part of the ongoing surveillance and control duties performed across the archipelago. The primary objective is to prevent criminal activity, maintain public order, and ensure citizen safety, particularly in areas with a higher incidence of crime.
