Guardia Civil ROCA Units Arrest Suspects in Copper-Heist Ring and Mocejón Street Attacks

The arrests reflect a stepped-up security push under Plan CERES 2.0 in Toledo’s La Sagra.

Overview

  • Segovia investigators linked an organized theft of 12 large copper coils from three industrial transformers to two men who live in Toledo.
  • Officers say the thieves cut power, broke locks, and pulled coils weighing about 100 kilograms each, causing €72,000 in losses plus site damage.
  • ROCA Segovia arrested the suspects in Ocaña and Dosbarrios after identifying them and the vehicle used, and both have prior property-crime records.
  • In a separate case, ROCA Illescas detained two men this month for robbing youths in Mocejón using a taser-style device and an extendable metal baton.
  • One victim lost a tooth in the assaults, and both investigations have been sent to the courts for further action under the Plan CERES 2.0 posture.
