The Guardia Civil has arrested a man suspected of carrying out several burglaries at restaurants and other establishments in Es Pujols, Formentera. The investigation began after business owners reported a series of thefts in early October, including one incident in which an owner surprised an intruder inside the premises before the suspect escaped with several tablets valued at almost €2,000.

The arrest took place on the afternoon of Tuesday 3 November 2026, following an investigation in which officers examined CCTV footage from the affected businesses.

According to the Guardia Civil, the suspect is allegedly responsible for several offences of burglary involving forced entry. The investigation remains open as officers work to establish whether he may be connected to other similar incidents in the area.

CCTV footage helped identify the suspect

The investigation began in early October, when the Guardia Civil received several complaints from owners of restaurants in the Es Pujols area following thefts at their businesses.

The incidents had been recorded by the establishments' security cameras. Investigators reviewed the footage and carried out further enquiries to identify the person allegedly responsible.

In one of the incidents, the owner of a business caught the suspect inside the premises. However, the individual managed to escape with several stolen items, including tablets with an estimated combined value of almost €2,000.

The recordings and subsequent police enquiries helped officers establish the identity of the suspected perpetrator.

Suspect placed at the disposal of judicial authorities

Following his arrest on 3 November, the man was investigated for several suspected offences of burglary involving forced entry.

After the relevant police proceedings had been completed, he was placed at the disposal of the judicial authority.
