The vehicles were sold on to a breakers yard

The owner of a tow truck company has been arrested for taking cars from the street to resell them to a breakers yard. He was collecting just 100 € per car.

La Opinión de Málaga reports that the National Police say that he had taken ‘at least one’ vehicle from the street, and that they had acted after a driver complained that his car had been removed despite it being correctly parked. Police had a break when they found that one of the cameras from a nearby commercial center had captured the theft.tow parts, towing, tower, winch cable, v strap, tow men

A police spokesman said that the price of 100 € for the car seemed ‘relatively low’ but it all depended on the number of cars he removed each day or week. Police investigations continue with several workers at breakers yards called to give statements.tow parts, towing, tower, winch cable, v strap, tow men
