Catalan police have reported three people from breaking the coronavirus State of Alarm restrictions after a helicopter patrol spied them sunbathing on the beach.
A pair of them tried to hide among rocks when they realised the helicopter was hovering above, but a ground patrol found them and issued the corresponding sanction.
A fourth person who was also on the beach in violation of the lockdown managed to slip away.
