A 57-year-old man has been investigated as the alleged perpetrator of two crimes of robbery with force perpetrated in two country houses in Churriana de la Vega (Granada) and after he lost his mobile phone in one of the raided homes.

As reported this Sunday by the Civil Guard, the two robberies occurred in December, and in the first the investigated person allegedly jumped the perimeter fence of the farmhouse, broke the security camera that the victim had outside the house with a stone and He forced one of the windows to access the interior.

Once inside, he broke the other security camera and took a laptop, a backpack, a watch and the pool's salt chlorinator.

The second robbery was perpetrated minutes later in the neighboring house, where he jumped the perimeter fence again and took two mountain bikes.

After the reports of both robberies, the agents carried out a visual inspection in both farmhouses, for which they viewed the images from the security cameras before they broke them and they stopped recording.

However, in them the agents only saw a hooded man whose face could not be seen. During the inspection, investigators found a mobile phone lying on the ground and the victim could not identify it because it did not belong to anyone in his family.

The agents then contacted the telephone company and found out who was the owner of said telephone, which together with the rest of the evidence obtained in the investigation has determined the alleged authorship of the man now under investigation.
