Investigation into robbery at the artist’s house
Vázquez indicated that the investigations made it possible to detect that the probable perpetrators used several vehicles to reach the artist’s residence and that the units were used for different robberies in Mexico City.
The robbery at Bos’s house occurred on the night of August 18 when the artist, 67, was in the building with his family.
According to the musician, who moved to Mexico with his family in 2018, 10 armed individuals broke into his home and tied him, his children, and the household staff for more than two hours. The assailants stole jewelry, cash and a luxury van with which they fled, local media reported.
“It was all very tense, delicate and unpleasant. This is the only version they should listen to. They are saying things that are not true, as some usually like,” said the 67-year-old artist, after the event.
“Thank you all for the support and constant concern shown, but rest assured. To my urbanization neighbors, the first to arrive, a thousand heartfelt thanks. And to those who speculate so much that, after what happened, I am going to leave Mexico “I’m very sorry to disappoint you. Here I am and here I will stay to face whatever it takes, in the most hospitable country on the planet. We continue…”, the Spaniard concluded.
