Three Arrested After Break-ins at Orihuela Phone Shop and Vape Store

Three individuals have been arrested in connection with break-ins at a mobile phone repair shop and a vape store located in a shopping center in Orihuela. According to police reports, the suspects entered the phone shop using a crowbar, but were unsuccessful in gaining access. Following that incident, security guards at the shopping center observed three individuals climbing over an entrance gate and entering the vape store.

The intruders reportedly broke display cases within the vape shop and stole various items before fleeing the scene.

Two of the arrested individuals are adults, while a minor was also taken into custody. National Police and Orihuela Local Police were called to the scene following the attempted break-in at the phone shop. Upon arrival, officers discovered damage to the entrance but confirmed that no one had gained entry. A thorough search of the surrounding area did not yield any leads regarding the suspects.

Subsequently, a security guard at the shopping center provided officers with descriptions of the three individuals involved in the vape store incident. During a search in a nearby park, police apprehended the three suspects, who were found to be in possession of stolen goods and tools believed to have been used in the break-ins. The recovered items were subsequently returned to the shop owner.

The two adult suspects were promptly brought before the Orihuela duty court, while the case involving the minor was referred to the Juvenile Prosecutor's Office in Alicante.
