Toni Mayans Serra, from Can Pascual in Es Caló, Formentera, had a very unpleasant surprise this morning. A group of people had used the terrace attached to his house as a shelter and eaten everything they could find — including, among other delicacies, four boxes of frozen prawns — as well as drinking all the beverages, although they left two bottles of wine unopened.
“I woke up and my father told me they had left everything upside down”, explains Mayans to Diario de Ibiza. He believes the uninvited “guests” were some of the migrants who arrived on the island on Tuesday night, as he points out in a video he shared. According to his account, they arrived “about an hour or an hour and a half after I fell asleep”, and he says he is “thankful” he didn’t wake up: “I would have asked them for an explanation, but there were so many of them… anything could have happened”, he admits.
This Es Caló resident is particularly upset about the state in which they left his property, using it to light fires and cook food. He recalls that in the past he had shown solidarity by hosting a group of sub-Saharan migrants in the same house, providing them with food, lending them clothes, and even allowing them to sleep under his roof — the same one that has now been found in disarray. “I gave them everything, and they behaved very well until the police arrived”, he recalls. “This time, it was completely different”.
