Elche woman held for attempting to murder another with a knife

A 55-year-old resident of Elche has been incarcerated by the on-call court for an alleged attempted homicide. A woman was assaulted on the neck in her own home by a disguised man who was carrying a sharp object last Friday, March 7th. The incident was reported by CBD HERE https://costablancadaily.com/2025 /03/12/woman-assaulted-in-her-elche-home/ earlier this week. The woman contacted the CIMACC 091 coordination room.

The woman was observed to be bleeding profusely upon the approach of the police patrol and specialists in violent crimes. According to the report, she was promptly transported to Elche General Hospital via a SAMU ambulance, as “her life could be in serious danger.”

The sole piece of information that investigators had was that a hooded man had entered the victim’s residence and struck her with a kitchen knife to the throat. The hooded man fled after the attacker began to cry for assistance and a struggle. The perpetrator was promptly identified through the implementation of numerous investigative avenues.

Despite the numerous initial investigative endeavours, none of them initially produced conclusive results. Nevertheless, the victim’s personal circle was not involved in the investigation, and the focus was on a 55-year-old Spanish woman who had allegedly engaged in a conflict with the victim “some time ago,” although the exact date is not specified.

It was determined that the assailant attacked the victim when she was alone after waiting for her husband to leave the house, as a result of the investigation. She pounded on the door and charged at her, causing a severe injury to her neck. “The knife’s blade was discovered at the scene, and as fate would have it, the handle detached from the blade.” This circumstance is believed to have saved her life, according to investigators.

21 expensive cars that were stolen in the U.S. were found Valencia port

Together with the US Container Security Initiative, the Guardia Civil and the Tax Agency found 21 high-end cars that were stolen in the U.S. and were on their way to Africa in the port of Valencia. The cars, which were worth a total of €1.1 million, were reported stolen and were being moved in containers.

The cars were stolen in the U.S. and were on their way to different places in Africa, stopping in Valencia’s port. Risk analysis units made up of Guardia Civil and Tax Agency officers were able to find several packages that might not have had the goods that were claimed to have been inside.

With the help of the information gathered, it was confirmed that stolen cars that had been in Valencia on their way to the United States had actually arrived. The groups that ship stolen cars either traded legally declared cars for stolen ones or directly declared the stolen cars as other goods, like furniture or mattresses.

In the past few weeks, 21 vehicles have been found and will be sent back to their home countries to be given to their original owners.

14 immigrants were saved on a boat 45 miles off the coast of Alicante

On Wednesday, 2nd April, the Maritime Rescue ship Salvamar Leo saved 14 immigrants who were travelling in a boat about 45 miles from Alicante.

In the middle of the afternoon on Wednesday, Maritime Rescue sent out its Helimer 223 helicopter and the Salvamar Leo, which is based in Alicante, to save the people on a small boat.

Their journey began on the Salvamar Leo, which took them to the Temporary Assistance Centre for Foreigners in the port of Alicante. There, the Red Cross took care of them.

The Red Cross says that all of the refugees they saved were men, and two of them were younger than 15 years old. They were all healthy after being treated.

The National Police took over the refugees after getting help from the Red Cross. They are now trying to find the boat’s captain so they can arrest him, as is normal in these situations.

Dénia wrestler arrested in connection with a network that smuggled 300 kilos of cocaine from Ecuador

The National Police’s Drugs and Organised Crime Unit arrested a famous mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter from Dénia. He was part of a gang that was partly broken up in August over a shipment of 300 kg of cocaine from Ecuador that came into the port of Valencia. The fighter from Dénia is one of five people who were caught by police. Along with nine other gang members who were already in jail at the time, they are now in jail.

The man who was arrested in Dénia is thought to be the trusted man of the gang’s leader, who is also an MMA fighter, and the person who is said to have worked as a go-between in the operation.

Levante-EMV also says that the broken-down network is linked to another shipment of 490 kg of cocaine that came into the port of Valencia in April of last year.

The five people who were just caught went before Valencia’s Investigative Court No. 20 yesterday, April 3rd.
