Armed Police Arrest Man For La Cala Stabbing

Guardia Civil officers have arrested an 18 year old Moroccan man at an apartment in La Cala De Mijas, following a stabbing earlier today.  The man threatened police with a gun, but was eventually talked into surrendering himself.

Shots Fired

The incident began just after 11am this morning, when the 18 year old Moroccan stabbed a man in front of a bar on Calle Ronda.  It has now been revealed that the injured man is the step father of the perpetrator.  Immediately after the stabbing, the 18 year old fled to a nearby apartment and barricaded himself inside.  He then threatened police with a gun, and some witnesses say shots were fired.  After a brief stand off, he gave himself up and has been taken into custody.
