The red Fiat Bravo used by the four-man gang that made off with €7,000 euros in a raid on the Camy-Nestlé ice-cream plant in Vila-seca yesterday morning, was found at 8am this morning near Gimnàstic's stadium in Tarragona's Budellera district.

It has been confirmed that Javier López Cornejo, the 37-year-old factory worker who lost his life, died when the shotgun of one of the robbers fell to the floor and discharged accidentally after Mr Cornejo confronted the gang, hitting him in the face and killing him instantly.

His funeral was held this afternoon in Tarragona's La Canonja district.

The Guardia Civil are hunting a gang of four known criminals who carried out an armed raid on an ice-cream factory in Vila-Seca (Tarragona) this morning that cost the life of a 37-year-old male employee.

After the raid, which took place at around 11.15am at the Camy-Nestlé plant on the Estació industrial estate on the outskirts of the town, the four men, who were armed with three shotguns and a knife, made their getaway in a red saloon car stolen from Tarragona city centre last Sunday.
