A 44-year-old man from Los Silos has been arrested by the Guardia Civil for a series of burglaries in abandoned locations across the municipality of Buenavista del Norte. The suspect is accused of committing multiple break-ins and thefts, amassing stolen goods valued at approximately €33,000.
The crimes took place at several disused properties in Los Silos, including the former municipal swimming pool, a restaurant, and a nightclub. These premises had remained closed to the public following the expiration of their administrative concession issued by the General Directorate of Coasts.
The investigation began after the Los Silos Town Hall, through its Local Police, filed a formal complaint regarding the thefts. The Guardia Civil, with the support of the Local Police, determined that the suspect had taken advantage of the buildings' abandonment to enter and steal materials, primarily metal-based equipment and infrastructure.
Narrowing down suspect, the police made their move for the man they believed was responsible, and following his arrest, he was placed at the disposal of the Court of Instruction in Icod de Los Vinos pending further legal procedure.
With the resolution of these thefts, the Guardia Civil of Buenavista del Norte reaffirms its dedication to public safety, demonstrating its commitment to preventing and solving crimes that impact the local community.
