Officers from the Mossos d'Esquadra police station in Sant Adrià de Besòs arrested three individuals on the night of April 22, caught in the act of committing an aggravated robbery at a beauty center in the town. This intervention allowed investigators to link the detainees to two additional attempted robberies that occurred the same night at a bar and a herbalist shop in the same municipality.
Concurrently, the Badalona Investigation Unit had an ongoing investigation into other aggravated robberies. As a result of the arrests, one of the detainees, aged 28, was linked to three previous violent robberies in commercial establishments: two in Sant Adrià and one in Badalona.
The joint efforts of the Sant Adrià agents and the arrests made have led to the resolution of a total of five aggravated robberies in commercial establishments in Sant Adrià, as well as one aggravated robbery in a supermarket in Badalona. All these incidents took place during April of this year.
The three detainees, aged 28, 44, and 24, were brought before the duty court in Badalona on April 24. One of them had a dozen police records, eleven of which were for offenses committed this year.
“"These arrests have allowed for the resolution of almost all aggravated robberies in commercial establishments that were occurring in Sant Adrià, which contributes to generating a greater sense of security among the municipality's commercial fabric."
