Mass fight in South Tenerife: Over 30 people involved and four injured with knives

A violent street brawl involving more than 30 people erupted early on Sunday morning outside a nightclub on Avenida Marítima in Puerto Santiago, located in the municipality of Santiago del Teide, south Tenerife.

The incident, which occurred at approximately 4:00am, resulted in four serious injuries, two of which were caused by bladed weapons.

The Emergency Services Coordination Centre (CECOES) received several alerts about the altercation and promptly dispatched the relevant emergency services to the location given.

Of the four people injured, three were taken to hospital for further treatment. Two men sustained injuries from knife wounds to the chest and were transported to Hospital del Sur and Hospiten Sur.

A third man suffered a superficial laceration and multiple contusions classified as ‘moderate’ and was taken to a health centre in Adeje. The fourth person was treated for a mild anxiety attack and declined transportation to a medical facility.

The police played a critical role in managing the chaotic scene, with the Guardia Civil taking charge of the investigation and handling legal proceedings, while the Local Police supported the emergency response teams during the incident.

The authorities are continuing their investigations into the incident to identify those involved and determine the underlying causes of the conflict.
