The events took place minutes after midnight, in the El Artesano candy store, in San Pedro del Pinatar. Several calls alerted the Emergency Department that a robbery was taking place: some hooded men, at least three individuals, had broken a glass and were stealing from inside the establishment, indicate sources close to the case.
There were several witnesses who observed the criminals smash the window, gain entry by force, steal a cash register and flee in a car. Those present were able to take the license plate and provide it to the Security Forces and Corps: thanks to this, it was discovered that it was a vehicle stolen hours before in the town of San Javier.
The Civil Guard is the competent body to take charge of the investigation. It has not been revealed how much money was in the box.
