Villalibre de la Jurisdicción I, León (2016). Sixteen-year-old Arsenio Macias was killed 500m from his home, between 1936 and 1937, and buried near an electrical transformer. He was murdered by Falangists because he refused to reveal the whereabouts of his older brother Claudio.

The Falangists went to find Claudio and could only find Arsenio Macias, a teenager of just 16 years old. The young man did not want to reveal the whereabouts of his brother and they took him away. He was killed 500 meters from his home, in what is known as the "Villalibre curve". His body was buried in the side of the road near an electrical transformer. In this same area in 2009, a grave containing the remains of 4 residents of Priaranza was exhumed.
