British man arrested on Tenerife for assaulting a Civil Guard

British man faces two sets of separate charges after the Civil Guard were called out to a domestic violence incident in Amarilla Golf, in San Miguel de Abona, Tenerife, and the suspect threw hydrochloric acid at one of the officers.

La Opinión reported on Wednesday that the officer is now recovering from injuries to an eye, although his colleague reacted quickly in washing off the ‘agua fuerte’ from his face. It was at this point that the British man took the opportunity to flee the scene.

He was arrested by the local police shortly afterwards and released from custody after appearing before a judge on the charge of assaulting an officer.

The un-named British suspect was arrested for a second time just a few hours later on the charge of domestic violence.
