Overview

• Police detained ten demonstrators during Stage 15—eight in O Corgo by the Guardia Civil and two in Monforte de Lemos by the Policía Nacional.
• The eight held in O Corgo were released pending possible judicial summons, while the two arrested in Monforte were due to be brought before a judge.
• Authorities said the arrests were for public disorder posing danger to people, with reports of attempts to shift barriers and block parts of the route.
• Race security was tightened at the Monforte finish with a double line of fencing to protect the arrival area.
• A roadside incident preceded a crash involving rider Javier Romo, and protest organizers denounced police actions as heavy-handed; BNG official Rosana Prieto was among those detained and later released.
