On a cold Thursday morning, armed robbers executed a well-planned ambush to steal nearly €1 million worth of Zara clothing from a lorry near Alicante's El Espartal industrial estate. Two police imposters, driving two high-powered cars, surrounded the articulated lorry, forcing it to halt near the industrial estate's entrance. The unsuspecting driver was held at gunpoint, dragged out of the cab, and left on the roadside.

The robbers then commandeered the lorry and made a swift getaway, leaving the driver's mobile phone inside. Despite a passing lorry driver helping the victim and calling for assistance, the lorry and its precious cargo remain missing. Police are investigating the incident, hoping CCTV footage and traffic cameras will reveal crucial details and help identify the four suspected assailants.
