A Moroccan man was stabbed in a brawl in Playa de Las Américas on Saturday

Two British men were arrested in Tenerife this weekend, in connection with the fatal stabbing of a 25 year old Moroccan man who died after a brawl in the Américas Shopping Centre in the Playa de Las Américas resort on the South of the island. It happened in the early hours of Saturday and was reported by a security guard.

The victim was still alive when emergency services arrived on the scene and was admitted to hospital in a critical condition. Doctors at the Hospital Sur pronounced him dead shortly afterwards.

It’s understood the two suspects were arrested some hours later and were taken to the National Police station for questioning.

My daughter worked in Tenerife for a while last year and has recently been told that an ENGLISH friend working in Las Americas was stabbed to death by a Morroccan man about the same time as this article refers. Can you confirm that the facts in this article are confirmed? Thanks.
