A report on Facebook yesterday

"Be aware folks a gang of alleged Moroccans are ransacking houses/apartments. Last night ransacked apartments in La Zenia was seen and as resident called police she was threatened with a screwdriver, so clearly they are not bothered. Do not approach, call police. Apparently two of them are exceptionally tall.

Aparrently took place in Molino Blanco, La Zenia, Orihuela Costa

Response from the OCVC on the report on Facebook yesterday please circulate

"This adds up. At 9.30 am today a car was stationary in the road outside our house. I looked out of the window and was seen. The driver saw me, was quickly joined by about four others and drove off rapidly. They were North Africans and I am told that one was wearing a white mask similar to a Ice Hockey mask.

Between neighbours we think that we have the number of the black car they were driving. This has been given to the police together with what we think was the car number, DHS or DSH 4496.

Please circulate the description to all. If seen get in touch with the police but do not approach them.
