Three robberies in one night in Huesca lead to arrest of 25-year-old man

The National Police have arrested a 25-year-old man as the suspected perpetrator of three robberies committed in a single night in Huesca, according to cartv.es.

The incidents occurred on 7 May. Security cameras at a self-service laundromat captured the suspect attempting to steal money from a change machine. To force it open, he used a crowbar and had the assistance of an accomplice. Material damage exceeded €3,000, although the thief failed to take the money.

After this first failed attempt, the arrested man went to two other nearby properties, where he forced locks and broke down access doors in further attempted robberies.

Officers identified him thanks to footage recorded at the laundromat and proceeded with his arrest. The investigation remains open to locate the accomplice who was with him during the incidents.
