A 19 year old youth has been arrested after being overheard talking on his mobile phone about having just killed a man in Málaga.
The youth was on the Málaga to Madrid bus when he decided to make his telephonic confession. Sitting next to him, and overhearing the conversation, was a police officer in plain clothes.
The officer then began texting his colleagues to check if in fact there had been a killing in Málaga. When it was confirmed that there had been a stabbing, the officer sent a description of the youth, enabling the police to arrest him once they got to Madrid.
