He fell from a height of 7 meters. Two friends took him to the health center at dawn, where he died, and accompanied the Civil Guard to the scene of the incident.
He was a criminal with a varied criminal record and known in the region. But he died this morning stealing the wiring. This happened in a nature reserve in Los Yébenes, in the province of Toledo, at kilometer 130 of the N-401. With two friends, they broke down the hunting fence and headed towards a lighthouse built of concrete. He climbed to the top and, as he cut the cables, the infrastructure gave way and he fell to the ground. The thief, a 47-year-old foreigner residing in the nearby town of Mora, fell from a height of around 7 meters.
It was one o’clock. With a thread of life, his accomplices took him by car to the local health center, about twenty kilometers away. Paramedics tried to resuscitate him, but he died a few minutes later. The accomplices did not leave the facilities and accompanied the Civil Guard to the scene, although it was not revealed if they were arrested.
The body was transferred to the facilities of the Institute of Forensic Medicine of the Toledo cemetery for the autopsy.
For weeks, cable thefts have been occurring, causing supply cuts in several towns in the region, including Los Yébenes. Even the mayor of this town publicly asked for citizen collaboration.
Recently, the Civil Guard arrested some individuals suspected of being linked to these crimes, and they were released with precautionary measures, according to sources consulted by ABC.
