The Civil Guard of Almassora has arrested two men for their alleged involvement in several forceful robberies committed at a ceramic company in the town.

The incident occurred in the early hours of August 14, when the now-detained individuals accessed the company's facilities by climbing the perimeter fence. During the act, they stole several boxes of tiles but were surprised by Civil Guard officers, who were on special alert due to previous robberies.
As a result of this intervention, the stolen material was recovered and returned to the company's manager. Subsequently, an investigation was launched to clarify other incidents reported at the same company on July 17 and 20. Investigations have allowed officers to confirm the alleged involvement of one of the detainees in those incidents.
The two arrested individuals, along with the corresponding proceedings, have been handed over to the competent Judicial Authority.
