Andújar police arrest two women for stealing one-month-old baby
The National Police have arrested two women, aged 43 and 45, in Andújar, Jaén, following the theft of a one-month-old baby. The incident occurred on a Thursday morning in a central street of the city while the mother was walking with the stroller.
According to reports, the two women approached the mother, pushed her, and seized the stroller containing the infant. In response, more than twenty police officers were mobilized to seal off escape routes in the municipality. An officer eventually intercepted the women with a stroller matching the description, finding the infant in perfect health.
The two suspects were released with charges and a judicial order to maintain a 300-meter distance from the mother and the child. The investigation remains open as authorities have not yet determined a motive for the abduction.
