There was quite a spectacular fire within a scrapyard in Padul on Monday the 7th of July that caused an impressive column of black smoke.
A total of 21 cemeteries in the province of Toledo have suffered thefts worth a total of 450,000 euros. So far the Guardia Civil have managed to recuperate 2.200 kilos of ornamental pieces, mostly made out of bronze.
Anybody who drives past Padul on the autovía will have seen the scrapyard but yesterday they would have also seen the pail of smoke erupting from it.
You’ve heard of guard dogs, of course, well one scrap-yard owner has decided to go nuclear and now employs guard bulls.
The Guardia Civil has arrested the owner of a lorry, parking area in connection with robberies carried out on 13 lorries in one night on the premises. Two of the lorries were also stolen.
