Agricultural thief arrested

GUARDIA CIVIL officers have arrested a 32-year-old resident of Vicar, FMSD, on suspicion of theft from an agricultural warehouse.

The officers also arrested two additional people in the same village on suspicion of receiving stolen goods. The investigation began after the Guardia Civil were made aware of the sale of plant protection products of dubious origin. Officers located a farmer who had purchased the goods, along with his friend. The farmer and his friend produced a number of materials purchased recently in the town. Through an interview with the two men, the officers were able to identify the thief and proceed to his arrest.

The three men, in addition to the case details, have been passed to the courts for processing.
