A Benidorm resident has been fined €3,400 for allegedly dismantling and removing barriers installed by the local police to impede traffic on a road leading to an area known as La Cruz up to 25 times. The resident claims that the barriers were obstructing his way to the local coves to surf. The officers identified the 60-year-old resident of Rincón de Loix in Benidorm, who is believed to have been the perpetrator of the damage to the public furniture. The individual is of Eastern European origin.
Yesterday, Thursday 20th March, Quique Tortosa, the spokesman for the Benidorm Local Police, said that officers had been observing the disappearance of these traffic control beacons from their designated locations and their subsequent hurling down an embankment for approximately four to five months. The Local Police deployed a device to identify and locate the individual who was committing these acts of vandalism, and they also requested assistance from the neighbours, as these items were damaged up to 25 times.
The alleged perpetrator of these incidents has been apprehended by local police. According to the same source, he was “bothered by the fences because he would drive his car and surfboards to the coves in that area in the afternoons.” The Local Police will impose penalties of 3,400 euros on the driver for two violations of the General Traffic Regulations, as has been reported.
