According to the Guardia Civil the event happened on March 5th. The two arrested individuals, a Portuguese man and a British man, ages 56 and 64, respectively, were taken to court and held in detention without bail, they said in a statement.

An air gun, two Tasers, three self-defence sprays, balaclavas, gloves, masks, and a roll of duct tape were discovered during the search of the surrounding area. Additionally, a sizable rental van was found, which the inmates intended to utilise in their escape.
