Partido Popular in Mijas are demanding that action be taken by the Town Hall to stop wild boar invading local golf courses and rural properties, and causing considerable damage.

Councillor Manolo Navaro said that even dogs had been attacked by the boar over recent days, and that the damage had been taking place for the past three or four weeks.
