A stolen van, reported missing weeks ago, was spotted driving through Atarfe. When confronted by Local Police officers, the occupants rammed a patrol car to make their escape, initiating a dramatic flight.
The police intervention was facilitated by several citizen reports alerting officers to the presence of the vehicle, stolen on June 16th. Upon attempting to intercept the van, the driver reacted aggressively, striking the official vehicle and causing damage to other cars during the escape attempt.
The chase extended into the neighboring town of Pinos Puente. The pursuit ended when the occupants abandoned the van and fled on foot, leaving the stolen vehicle behind. Officers managed to recover it shortly after.
The investigation remains open, and security forces are currently working to identify and locate those responsible for these events.
