The Local Police of Santa Cruz de Tenerife has processed a total of 52 minutes for various offenses related to the consumption of alcohol on public roads, breaches of closing hours of establishments and disobedience to the instructions of the agents in the last week.
Thus, the capital police force was forced to intervene in seven celebrations of ‘bottles’ that were held in various places in the municipality such as the Tahodio highway, the Los Campitos viewpoint, in the El Rosarito neighborhood, La Salud neighborhood or the Maritime Park parking area on Constitución avenue.
The councilor delegate for Citizen and Road Safety, Evelyn Alonso, raised the need to “insist on a preventive message, because we are talking about violations of our ordinances or specific health regulations, to prevent them from becoming a problem for public health and coexistence ”.
Alonso confirmed “the palpable commitment of the vast majority of the hotel and catering establishments in our municipality, which have adapted to very difficult circumstances in order to continue carrying out their economic activity, respecting and collaborating with the City Council and the public.”
In addition, he indicated that many of the ‘bottles’ were acted upon thanks to neighborhood collaboration by denouncing the noise and inconvenience caused by these groups of people who, in addition to alcohol consumption, used the sound equipment in their vehicles to entertain the party.
The most massive incident occurred on the access road to Tahodio, where about twenty people had gathered at that point during the early hours of Sunday.
Days before, half a dozen other young people had been intervened in the same place.
In the La Salud neighborhood, in the streets near the Las Indias park, two small ‘bottles’ were also detected during the two nights of the weekend.
MULTISTORES SELLING ALCOHOL AFTER CLOSING HOURS
Interestingly, the police officers also proceeded to record the minutes of two 24-hour multi-store premises for selling alcohol in breach of the established closing hours, in one of the cases at 03:00 in the morning.
Another two points of ‘bottle’ were concentrated in the viewpoint of Los Campitos, where at 04.15 hours on Sunday about seven young people gathered in various cars, raising infraction records for this, as in the neighborhood of El Rosarito, place in which almost a dozen people drank on public roads with their vehicles.
Although there were several notices about possible parties at home that caused discomfort, it was only necessary to intervene in one case in the area of the Lord’s Cross.
Of the total number of minutes, a dozen were processed for lack of respect or disobedience to the agents of the authority and nine for the possession or consumption of narcotic substances.
