Nativity Scene In Callosa De Segura Destroyed
On January 1st 2019 unknown people destroyed the nativity scene at the Alto del Aguila in the mountains of Collosa by kicking and throwing it down the hill. The nativity scene was later found 300 meters away from the top of Alto del Aquila, where it was placed by the porter and 300 other people on December 16th. Every year since 1962 the nativity scene is placed there. The porcelain figures and the old crib made out of methacrylate were completely destroyed. The residents of Callosa de Segura are outraged by this criminal act.
"It is the worst attack that the crib has suffered since it is placed there every Christmas since 1962. Only the figure of King Melchior has been saved, but we do not know how. On two other occasions they have also broken the crib and taken some figures and last year they rubbed human faeces, but they had never been so fierce," said the spokesman for the Centro Excursionista de Callosa.
