Suspected hit man 'linked to London gang' arrested after police chase in Costa del Sol
A British man believed to be wanted by police in connection with "several murders" has been arrested in Spain's Costa del Sol after crashing his car. Dramatic images showed the wrecked Nissan Qashqai on a road in Riviera, between La Cala de Mijas and Marbella, with pistols, ammunition and a silencer strewn on the ground. Local news outlet Diaro Sur reports that the alleged hitman had a confrontation with two Dutch women at a petrol station on Thursday, as he tried to get them to buy him cocaine. As police arrived at the scene, the suspect got into his car and attempted to make a getaway before crashing his vehicle. The man is allegedly linked to 'one of London's most dangerous crime gangs" and witnesses say he got out of the car with visible injuries and made one last ditch effort at escaping on foot, before being caught by officers. Investigators from Policía Local de Mijas have now released images of items seized from the crash. They include two pistols, ammunition, a silencer, a notebook with names and addresses, as well as a book 'Practical Buddhism and the Search for Self'. A spokesman from Policía Local de Mijas said: "A British man has been arrested in Riviera who had a warrant out for him ordering his remand in prison for murder. 'While conducting surveillance work in La Cala de Mijas, officers were called to deal with an altercation at a petrol station in the area. 'Upon arrival, they interviewed a customer at the station who stated that a foreign man who had been harassing her had already driven away from the scene. "Shortly afterwards, a call was received alerting us to an accident on Orfebres Street in Riviera. 'Upon arrival the officers found a damaged vehicle that matched the one involved in the incident at the petrol station. "The driver attempted to flee when he saw police but was quickly intercepted by the officers. "Once identified, they verified that he was a British man with a warrant for his arrest and remand in prison for murder. 'He was also carrying several firearms and a large amount of ammunition which were seized." An investigation is ongoing to determine the man's alleged links with organised crime and he has been detained by the Civil Guard. The Met Police has been approached for comment.
