Two men arrested after breaking into abandoned hotel in south Tenerife

Two men, aged 32 and 20, have been arrested in the south of Tenerife after allegedly breaking into an abandoned hotel and attempting to resist arrest.

The Guardia Civil has charged them with breaking and entering, burglary, and assaulting a police officer.

The Central Operative Services (COS) received an alert that two people had illegally broken into the derelict hotel in the south of the island. Officers from the Guía de Isora police station responded quickly and found the suspects inside the premises, who had gained access by scaling a wall.

During the arrest, one of the suspects attempted to assault an officer, further complicating the situation. Despite his resistance, both were taken into custody.

The detainees have been placed at the disposal of the Arona Magistrate’s Court, where they will face legal proceedings.
