A woman dubbed the "Black Widow" fraudster, accused of stealing £300,000 from a vulnerable 89-year-old pensioner, has been detained by Spanish police in Tenerife after fleeing the UK. She now faces extradition proceedings to return her to Britain, where she is wanted in connection with the fraud.

Footage captured the moment officers apprehended the suspect, who had reportedly gone on the run to the Canary Islands to evade justice over the alleged theft from her elderly victim. British authorities are now pursuing her return through extradition channels so she can face the case in the UK.
