The Mossos d’Esquadra arrested four men yesterday, December 9, for a fight in the Prat Airport, Barcelona. The conflict occurred in Terminal 1, around six in the afternoon, between two luggage packing companies. The workers who are dedicated to wrapping passengers’ suitcases starred in these images.
The scene has been published on social networks by some of the passengers who were at the Airport during the events. The dispute between the ‘packers’ occurred in the same departure area of Terminal 1 in El Prat, giving rise to insults and persecutions.
What you see here is one of the videos that are current by the investigators of a battle that has occurred between illegal baggage rollrs at Terminal T1 of the Barcelona-El Prat airport. Normally I wouldn’t think about these things, but the situation is regrettable one more time… pic.twitter.com/zKrwmRXYmP

In fact, one of those involved during the fight ended up injured, having to be taken to the hospital by the EMS. This situation is not new, since a similar video was published last August. At the moment, he airport of Barcelona does not offer an official packaging service.
“These people have been hanging around the terminals for at least half a year scamming tourists and fighting among themselves as if they were real mafias, further aggravating the serious problem of pickpockets and suitcase thieves that we normally already have in the facilities,” wrote the Catalunya Air Transit in X.
