A group of six Moroccans are responsible for at least three robberies - the latest, one hundred lambs
The Civil Guard have arrested a group of six sheep rustlers, who they believe are responsible for robberies on farms in Molinos Gallegos, La Aljorra and La Aparecida, and possibly others. Almost a hundred lambs were stolen in the latest robbery in La Aparecida on Monday.
The six men, all of them from Morocco, were arrested in countryside near Santa Ana early on Wednesday morning. They sold the stolen animals to butchers shops run by other Moroccans throughout the district.
