At  01.00 hrs on 19th August 2014, a Night Guard in Faro was patrolling in the area of Largo do Como when he became  suspicious of a man carrying a cement bag which appeared to originate from Rua de Alportel in Faro where there is work in progress.

The Night Guard contacted the PSP and approached the person to enable the police to verify where the cement bag originated from.

The man was arrested by PSP for being in possession of narcotics and having confessed to the theft of the bag of cement.

“Na madrugada de hoje e pelas 01:00, um Guarda-Nocturno de Faro desconfiou de um casal que se dirigia para o Largo do Carmo, pelo facto de o homem levar consigo um saco de cimento, sendo que da rua de onde vinham, Rua de Alportel, existe uma obra a decorrer.

O Guarda-Nocturno contactou com a PSP e abordou o casal de modo a permitir a esta força de segurança verificar a proveniência da saco de cimento.

O Individuo acabou detido pela PSP por se encontrar na posse de estupefacientes, tendo confessado o furto do saco de cimento.”
