Police in Spain have arrested two people in connection with a missing persons case after a Google Maps vehicle took a picture of someone apparently loading a large object into the trunk of a car. <\/p>\n
A man and a woman have been detained in connection with the disappearance and death of a missing man, police said in a statement on Wednesday. <\/p>\n
A relative of the man reported him missing in November last year after receiving suspicious messages from his phone, police said. <\/p>\n
Although the pair previously spoke often, the man suddenly told his relative in the messages that he had met a new partner, would be moving to a different part of the country and was getting rid of his phone, according to the statement. <\/p>\n
The report sparked an investigation during which police discovered the Google Maps image, which they say could show a vehicle used in connection with a crime. <\/p>\n
The image, which still appears on Google Maps, was taken in the streets of Tajueco, a small village in the province of Soria in the Castile and Le\u00f3n region in northern Spain, in October. <\/p>\n
It shows a person leaning into the trunk of a red car containing a large object wrapped in a light colored cloth. <\/p>\n
This was the first time that a Google Maps vehicle had visited Tajueco to update the imagery of the village since November 2009, according to Google Maps data. <\/p>\n
On November 12, police arrested the former girlfriend of the missing man, as well as another man who had previously been in a relationship with the woman, alleging their involvement in the man\u2019s death and disappearance. <\/p>\n
Police also recovered a badly decomposed torso, which has not yet been formally identified but which police say could belong to the victim, from a cemetery in a nearby village on December 11. <\/p>\n
The investigation continues. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
