Sierra Blanca armed robbery at a luxury chalet

TWO people were injured in an armed robbery at a luxury chalet near the Sierra Blanca urbanization above fashionable Puerto Banus. Two people armed with knives broke into the home after midnight and once inside, made the occupants hand over all the money and valuables in the house.

The 82-year-old Liberian owner, who attempted to prevent the attack, was stabbed twice, and remains at the Costa del Sol Hospital. His 47-year-old wife, who is Spanish, was also injured and taken to a local health centre.

The thieves fled two hours later in a car belonging to the couple and goods including €3,000 in cash, mobile phones and laptop computer.

Meanwhile, the housekeeper had been able to get to the security guard at the entrance to the Sierra Blanca urbanization and call for help.
