The National Police detains the author of the throwing of the stick to Jordán in Betis-Sevilla

The National Police reported the arrest of the person responsible for throwing the stick that hit Joan Jordán during the Betis-Sevilla derby and which led to the suspension of the Copa del Rey clash. The detainee responds to the initials JCLE, is 30 years old and has a history of mistreatment, injuries and robberies with force. He has been released with charges, as reported this Monday by the National Police to the media. The person responsible is charged with the crimes of public disorder and injury and has been proposed for a sanction for an infraction of the Sports Law.

The Police investigated the incident from the moment it occurred through the images of the Benito Villamarín stadium until they found the person responsible for the incident. It must be remembered that the game was interrupted in the 39th minute of the first half, just after Betis scored the 1-1 and Joan Jordán received the blow from the post thrown by a Gol Sur fan. It was a broken flagpole, made of PVC. Burgos Bengoetxea, the referee of the match, decided to suspend the match and the Sevilla player Jordán was taken to the hospital to be checked after suffering dizziness after receiving the impact of the stick.
