Dutchman arrested for child abuse in Spain

A 65-year-old Dutchman was arrested for sexual crimes against three minors on the Spanish island Lanzarote, according to Thursday's police reports. The suspect was arrested on Monday after the father of one of the alleged victims filed a police report. The suspect is no stranger to the police and is also wanted on the Spanish mainland. He was already convicted for sexual crimes against children in Cádiz, in 2012. Apparently he moved to the most northern part of the Canary Islands, where he sought out new victims.
