The Guardia Civil has arrested a 25-year-old resident of Caravaca de la Cruz (Murcia) as the alleged perpetrator of a burglary in a home in the municipality, from which he took a television and a video game console, according to Guardia Civil authorities.
The investigation began after the property owners reported being burgled. According to their testimony, someone came into their home while they were on holiday and took various items.
Guardia Civil gathered evidence and found that the crime was committed via climbing, leading them to believe the thief was young and agile because he had to climb the garage wall to reach an upper-floor window, which was roughly three meters above ground.
The Guardia Civil focused their investigation on discovering security cameras in the area that may have captured photos linked to the heist. A recording from the day of the incident was recovered, depicting a young man carrying a large television.

Officers were able to identify the culprit with the help of the public, who appeared to be aware that the family was on vacation and the residence was unoccupied. He is said to have been charged with burglary.
The investigation ended with the recovery of a 55-inch television and a video game console, which were returned to their rightful owners.
