The National Police have arrested five men as alleged perpetrators of several violent robberies in commercial establishments in l'Horta de València and other locations.

The police operation has dismantled a criminal group that intimidated employees with bladed weapons. According to investigations, the perpetrators used previously stolen motorcycles to flee the robbery scenes quickly.
Officers have recovered six motorcycles and various valuables, such as high-end watches, which the detainees intended to introduce into the illegal market. The investigation began following a series of robberies in businesses in Benimàmet, Burjassot, and València, where the perpetrators used disguises to avoid identification.
The police operation concluded with the arrest of those involved, including the receivers responsible for selling the stolen goods. The main perpetrator, who had numerous prior records, has been remanded in custody by judicial order.
