The police have solved the case of a 45-year-old man who was killed in a street altercation in the Seville town of Utrera ... with the arrest of the suspect in a rural area in Malaga province.
The incident happened on 15 August, when the emergency services received several calls reporting that a man was lying in the street after several gunshots. A Guardia Civil patrol found the man with two gunshot wounds to the torso. He died on his way to the hospital.
The police focused their investigation on a local resident with whom the victim had reportedly had an argument. The two allegedly met in the area and had a heated confrontation in the middle of the street.
The suspect shot the victim and fled the scene with the help of his family.
