Answer

How can police solve a robbery in Mallorca if the suspect leaves the island?

Police can sometimes follow digital traces such as phone data, location information, and travel records. If officers share information quickly with authorities on the mainland, arrests can happen after a suspect has already left Mallorca. Cross-border coordination and fast reporting make a major difference in these cases.
