The Guardia Civil has arrested a man for allegedly threatening and trying to kill other residents of a squatted house in Santa Eulària.
As reported by the Armed Forces on Monday, a week ago a patrol moved to a squat in Calle del Mar in the town of Santa Eulària after being required by an altercation inside.
Once at the door they heard cries for help, so they entered the house and inside they surprised an individual who was carrying in his hands a piece of a door frame with which he threatened the agents with the intention of assaulting them. After urging him to stop his attitude and refusing to do so, he was reduced by the civil guards.
Once the situation was under control, they verified that the house showed numerous damages and interviewed two more male residents of the house, who stated that the other individual, in a very altered and aggressive state, had smashed the bedroom door with a large knife while they were sleeping, making a large hole through which he had tried to attack them, while threatening to kill them.
In addition, once they managed to snatch the knife, the man sprayed them with a can of acid and told them that he would burn them alive. For all these reasons, and after verifying the damage done and locating the knife, the agents proceeded to arrest the 31 year-old man of North African origin, who has a number of previous convictions for different acts.
