A homeowner in Benahavis has issued a warning after their villa was targeted by burglars twice in two months.

Footage shared on Instagram shows the masked man jumping over the outer wall of the property in the Monte Halcones urbanisation.

The clip, dated August 7 of this year, shows one of the men pull at the front door while casing out the home.

Luckily, very loud alarms begin ringing while lights start flashing, causing them to flee the scene.

Speaking to @marbellsequeja, the victim said: ‘On thursday night at about 11.40pm, they tried to burgle in the area of Monte Halcones in Benahavis…

‘Please be alert, they do not rest… it is the second time in less than two months.’

It follows a string of break-ins in holiday resorts along the Costa del Sol this summer.

The Spanish Eye revealed how the ‘San Pedro Prowler’ was entering homes between Marbella and Benahavis while occupants slept in their beds.
