Answer

Are e-scooters a problem in Palma street crime cases?

E-scooters are not a crime problem on their own, but they can make it easier to move quickly and leave a scene fast. In some street incidents in Palma, that mobility can shorten the time police or bystanders have to react. The real issue is the offence itself; the scooter is simply one way suspects may try to escape.
