Another man arrested for masturbating in front of teenage girls, this time in Tenerife

The National Police have arrested a 45-year-old man by the Playa de Troya beach in Las Americas in the south of Tenerife after a group of teenage girls reported him for asking them for sexual favours for money, and then got angry and started masturbating in front of them when they refused.

According to the police report, the man, who has a criminal record for similar offenses, approached the group of teenagers who were happily enjoying a day at the beach on Sunday, and sat down by them and offered them money for sex.

When they bluntly said no, sitting in front of them, he showed them his sexual organ and began to masturbate. The teenagers all aged between 13 and 16, went straight to the beach lifeguard who immediately requested the presence of the National Police.

Once at the scene, officers spoke with several different people, and after hearing their statements, arrested the man who had been prevented from leaving the beach by the lifeguard, and took him to the South Tenerife National Police Station.

The man is now in the custody of the judicial authority awaiting sentencing. This is the second incident of this type over the weekend after a 21-year-old was arrested in Gran Canaria.
