The emblematic lettering monument, «I Love Sabinillas» on the promenade, was found seriously damaged this morning. According to local residents who heard the blows in the early hours, they saw a group of young people fleeing the scene on an electric scooter after carrying out the act.
The Local Police are investigating the incident and have opened an investigation to find those responsible. Security cameras in the area are being reviewed in an attempt to capture the perpetrators and identify them, and the public is asked to cooperate in case anyone saw anything suspicious in the early hours of this morning.
The lettering monument «I Love Sabinillas», which was inaugurated with the third phase of the promenade last June, has been one of the hallmarks of Sabinillas this summer. Many residents and visitors have been unable to resist being photographed next to the letters to share on social media, which has given the municipality a great tourist promotion.
Manilva Town Hall has strongly condemned this act, which damages municipal heritage, and has announced that the damaged letters will be restored as soon as possible. In addition, further security measures will be considered to prevent incidents of this kind from happening again.
