New National Stadium Victim Of First Robbery

Although the new national stadium is inaugurated, it has yet to be handed over by the Chinese to Costa Rica and open its doors to the public, it is starting to rack up crimes against it, with its first robbery.

On Wednesday, while the group of workers who have been busy putting the stadium together were sleeping, two men decided to take advantage of the situation to steal some 50 kg of steel.

Police making their rounds of the Sabana park saw the two men in action, stuffing black bags with rolls of steel used in the construction.

The two men fled the scene before being caught up by the fact action of the police who were also able to recover the material which was clearly identified coming from the stadium for its markings in Chinese and identified as theirs by the Chinese construction company.

Last month the work barricades around the construction site were removed, exposing the stadium to the public as the work is in the finishing stage of construction.

This is the first robbery against the new stadium that will be open in the first half of 2011.
