Three members of an organized gang dedicated to robberies with violence in homes arrested in La Palma
In the early hours of 5 September 2020, it was reported that there was a robbery with violence and intimidation inside an isolated house in the municipality of Villa de Mazo, in which two hooded individuals broke into the interior of the building, immobilising the three inhabitants, and obtained a loot of approximately 20,000 euros in cash, as well as two laces and gold pendants.
On 23 October 2020, another robbery was reported with violence and intimidation inside another house in the urban centre of San Andrés and Sauces. In this event, two individuals disguised as operators of the water supply company accessed the interior of a house where they immobilized the only inhabitant, stole about 500 euros in cash, two pearl necklaces, two pearl bracelets, a gold ring, as well as a large number of earrings and a complete sheet (20 tenths) from the 2020 Christmas Lottery draw.
The two criminal acts were investigated separately until a batch of jewellery was found which was intended to be sold in a property dedicated to the purchase and sale of gold, identifying in that lot most of the items stolen in both criminal acts. From that moment on, the investigation was unified under the direction of the Court of First Instance and Instruction No. 2 of Santa Cruz de La Palma and with the coordination of the Public Prosecutor's Office.
