A 19-year-old man has been arrested after allegedly stabbing a store manager with a knife in an attempt to steal money from a shop in Marbella.
The victim suffered a 12cm cut on his neck, which required stitches, during a tussle between the pair in the food store on 4 April.
The suspect fled the scene, but left behind a bag which police said would have been used to put the stolen money into. The bag was taken away and analysed, until police made a DNA match, leading officers to an address in the Marbella area.
National Police arrested the man for robbery with violence, causing injuries and a crime against the administration of justice. He was also in breach of a restraining order against his ex-partner, police said. He has been remanded into custody.
