The Guardia Civil has detained one individual and is investigating two others following protests that disrupted the sixteenth stage of the Vuelta Ciclista a España in Mos, Pontevedra. The arrested man, a 43-year-old resident of Arcade in the Soutomaior municipality, along with two other men aged 41 and 44 under investigation, are suspected of committing public disorder offenses and resisting authority during the September 9 incident.
The protest, organized in support of the Palestinian people, forced race organizers to shorten the stage by eight kilometers when demonstrators blocked the road along the planned route between Poio and Mos. Security forces from both the Guardia Civil and National Police attempted to contain the situation as the protest prevented cyclists from passing through the affected area, ultimately leading to the early conclusion of the racing segment.
While several individuals were identified during the initial incident without immediate arrests, this week's law enforcement action follows further investigation into the events. All three individuals currently facing legal scrutiny have previous police records related to disorder offenses and attacks on authority figures, according to official sources.
In addition to the criminal proceedings, authorities have processed 24 administrative complaints for serious violations of Spain's Sports Law. These infractions carry potential fines ranging from €60,001 to €650,000, highlighting the significant legal consequences facing those involved in disrupting major sporting events.
