Persistent Robber Arrested in Torrevieja
Officers from the Guardia Civil arrested a 33-year-old man on two occasions in two consecutive weeks, as the alleged perpetrator of two crimes of vehicle theft, two robberies with violence and intimidation and three robberies with force at homes and at a construction site in Torrevieja.
The investigations began at the end of January, when the Torrevieja Guardia Civil collected a complaint regarding a crime of robbery with violence and intimidation that occurred in an establishment in the town, for which operation ‘claymore’ was launched.
After analysing the information obtained, the agents determined that the author had used a red vehicle to escape from the scene. A car with similar characteristics had been stolen between January 22 and 23 in Torrevieja. Said car was recovered by a Guardamar Guardia Civil patrol on January 26.
On January 30, through a new complaint, investigators learned of another robbery with intimidation, in which the perpetrator had acted wielding a large knife and had used a vehicle, which they also discovered had been stolen two days before.
Through the analysis of the evidence collected, on February 2, investigators determined the identity of the author. It was a 33-year-old man, who was arrested and placed at the disposal of the Investigative Court number 4 of Torrevieja, who ordered his release with the imposition of precautionary measures.
Once the accused was released, investigators learned of two other burglaries in Torrevieja and Guardamar de Segura, one at a home and the other at a construction site, on January 25 and 30. The agents located part of the stolen effects in an establishment selling second-hand objects, so they were recovered and returned to their legitimate owners.
Finally, on February 7, the agents managed to identify the perpetrator of the events and proceeded to arrest again the 33-year-old man who was released on the 2nd. He was charged with two crimes of robbery with force by burglary and he was placed at disposal of the Court of Instruction number 1 of Torrevieja, which has decreed his freedom once again with the imposition of precautionary measures.
