The Guardia Civil managed to prevent a person from taking their own life in Tinajo on last Saturday.
Last week local officers from San Bartolomé received a warning from an acquaintance of the person concerned, who communicated that they had told them of their intentions to end their own life in an unspecified rocky area of Tinajo.
The Guardia Civil immediately coordinated a search operation in the general area indicated by the person who reported the incident, with the aim of locating the person as soon as possible.
With the help of one of the Canarian Government’s helicopters, that was flying over the area, they were able to provide as much information as possible of the surrounding area.
Eventually, they spotted the someone they believed to be the person they were looking for.
The officers were able to reach the person and offer their support and the support of nearby emergency services.
