Figures of a nativity scene in Boadilla del Monte were found placed in obscene poses by unknown perpetrators.

Police were called to investigate and to review security camera near the roundabout where the nativity was displayed. The governing Partido Polular denounced the act, calling it a "clearly intentional attack against religious freedom."
