SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, 9 Jan. (EUROPA PRESS) –
A 44-year-old man has allegedly killed his ex-partner at his home in the municipality of Adeje, specifically in the Armeñime neighborhood, sources from the Civil Guard have reported to Europa Press.
The events occurred between 11:30 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. this Sunday when the residents alerted the Civil Guard, who appeared at the property, being able to immediately arrest the alleged attacker, of Moroccan origin, who had been reduced by a neighbour.
The woman, about 46 years old and also of Moroccan origin, has died after being attacked with a knife, which has caused injuries that have caused her death, while during the attack one of the victim’s children has also been injured trying to defend her.
In the house, at the time of the facts, were the four children of the woman -two from a previous relationship and another two from her ex-partner- who have been left in the hands of the public administrations since the victim did not have a great family support network on the island.
