The Mossos d'Esquadra police force arrested a man and two women in Manresa on February 26 for allegedly preparing organized burglaries in residential areas.

The operation began at 10:00 AM on the C-55 road when officers spotted a vehicle linked to previous robberies. After a pursuit, the car was stopped on the C-25 highway. Inside, police found a professional lock-picking kit, latex gloves, and non-prescription glasses used to evade security cameras.
The 43-year-old driver was also charged with document forgery for using a tampered passport and driving without a license. All three suspects have been released pending a court summons.
