Faro murderer still on the loose

burglaryTwo most foul robberies over the weekend left one old lady dead and another in hospital.

The assaults took place at properties in Olhão and Faro and almost certainly were carried out by the same person as both of the elderly residents lived on the ground floor and were assaulted most violently.

In each case, the front door was kicked open and the single occupants beaten, no doubt to reveal where money and valuables were hidden.

The assault in Faro on 82-year-old widow Delmira Miranda at her ground floor apartment proved to be fatal.

The attack in Olhão happened on Saturday leaving a 95-year-old in hospital in a serious condition with a poor prognosis. She also lives on the ground floor of a property.

The Faro police were alerted by Sra Miranda's neighbour who was surprised to see a door open on Sunday morning. The neighbour went into the property to find it ransacked and discovered the blood-stained body on the floor.
 
As this is now a murder investigation, the Judicial Police are handling the case and consider the assailant a "dangerous individual".
 
Two tourists also were assaulted in Faro over the weekend, also in the Baixa district, possibly by the same man. Their description may be useful in identifying the murderer.
