Overview

  • Guardia Civil detained a 21-year-old and a 15-year-old in Burjassot after identifying them on security footage from the afternoon of the attack.
  • The younger suspect was arrested at home during a late‑night operation that involved USECIC and local police, and the older later surrendered at a police station.
  • A stone found near the victim is being examined as the suspected weapon, with forensic tests underway to seek biological and material evidence.
  • The working hypothesis is that the officer encountered the suspects during an attempted theft of high‑value racing pigeons, prompting the blow to his head.
  • The officer remains hospitalized in an induced coma with a very serious prognosis, while the case has spurred a public appeal for information and renewed union calls for stronger protections for officers.
