He used the same method to dock.

With a great cold blood that allowed him to act in a very discreet way and ways to camouflage himself, such as changing clothes leaving the entity to avoid being detected with the same description, a bank robber, 39 years old and Spanish nationality, acted. for a month he raided five branches in Barcelona and other towns near the city.

The Mossos d'Esquadra were able to arrest him after mounting a special device in the face of the increase in robberies with the same way of acting.

The agents attributed to him four robberies with violence and / or intimidation in five banking entities in Barcelona, ​​Sant Boi de Llobregat and El Prat de Llobregat between June 22 and July 20. Investigators were looking for the same man who acted first thing in the morning or at noon when there were few customers in the banks and threatened workers with a large serrated knife. He always dressed more or less the same, with sunglasses, a cap and a very characteristic brown backpack. In addition, the same bank always robbed, but in different offices.

The first robbery was the Sant Martí district of Barcelona and took 1,800 euros. The second event was in Sant Boi de Llobregat and got 2,100. In the third, the Prat de Llobregat stole 1,800 euros and in this case no other bank worker noticed the robbery. The fourth event was again the same district of Barcelona, ​​but it went to a branch destined for companies in which they do not have cash and could not take anything. With all this information and the description of the victims, the Mossos prepared a device to stop him.

On July 22, he tried again to rob a bank in the Sants-Montjuïc district of Barcelona, ​​but took nothing.

On the other hand, the Mossos were able to locate him thanks to the rapid device initiated by troops from the Eixample police station, which was joined by units that followed him through the metro, until agents from the Sant Martí police station stopped him.

During the search at his house they found the clothes used in the robberies and also the knife that he himself confessed that he had used to rob banks.

At that moment he was calmly heading towards the beach with a minor daughter, so no one could think that it was a person who minutes before was trying to commit a bank robbery.

The detainee was brought to justice and the examining magistrate 32 of Barcelona ordered his admission to prison.
