In Tarragona, police are investigating an attempted forceful robbery in a residential building. A 46-year-old man with 25 prior criminal records was arrested after a resident defended himself against intruders, resulting in injuries to the homeowner. Meanwhile, in Tàrrega, firefighters responded to a vehicle fire on Lacetània Street, which occurred near a residential area and vegetation.
In Mollet del Vallès, the municipality is launching a seasonal leaf collection campaign. The initiative aims to collect approximately 65 tons of leaves to prevent slippery walkways and clogged drains, converting the organic waste into compost for local parks.
