PSP Funchal arrested three men and one woman, aged between 27 and 53, suspected of 32 criminal cases on the island of Madeira, after they robbed a taxi driver.
According to the PSP, the attack on the driver took place on Rua 31 de Janeiro, and shortly afterwards the three attackers (two men and a woman) were detained by the crew of a patrol car. During the search, they found a mobile phone, which was given to the victim. Soon, PSP officers managed to identify the escaped fourth suspect and intercept him near the house. All of them were recognized by the taxi driver who was the victim of the robbery.
Since the four thieves had already been charged in 32 cases, PSP coordinated with prosecutors and collected evidence to present to the judge. Three men were taken into custody, but the woman was released.
