A 21-YEAR-OLD man has been arrested for allegedly attacking the driver of a car in Motril.

The incident took place in Calle Lisboa, in the Vista Alegre district, according to the statement released by the councillor for Safety, Manuel Ballesteros.

Local Police officers, who were patrolling the area at the time, caught two people wearing black hoods red-handed as they were hitting a car driver through the vehicle’s window with a blunt object.

Both fled the scene when they noticed the police. After a short chase, the officers found one suspect hiding behind a car, and he was taken into custody.

Another unit was called to search for the other suspect, while the victim was taken in an ambulance to A&E.

Mr Ballesteros has reminded residents to report to Local Police, National Police or Guardia Civil any behaviour that they deem suspicious were they to witness them.
