In the last week there was one entry per day in the Region / Web
A sector of Villa Elisa became the epicenter of a new entrance in the last hours.
The situation, which left the victim’s family in a deep state of shock, took place a week after the assault with similar characteristics suffered by a 90-year-old retiree in the same commune, more precisely at Camino General Belgrano and 408.
There was nothing to suggest that a peaceful Sunday afternoon, a moment that most people use to rest or reunite with their affections, would be the moment chosen by at least three thugs to carry out a robbery that began as an escruche, but ended as a entrance.
It was two in the afternoon on Sunday when the victims arrived at their home located at 421 and 10 after being outside for almost 5 hours. A Ford Ecosport pickup parked upside down in front was interpreted by the homeowner as a very strange situation.
With the alarms turned on, the man decided to park his vehicle a few meters ahead and get out to inspect what he had seen meant.
As he got closer to his garage, his main fear was confirmed: there were people inside his home and it was most likely that they were stealing.
He quietly peeked out to see if there was movement and it was at that moment that two individuals came out of his own house.
After an exchange of glances, the intruders realized that it was the owner of the property and, with barrettes in their hands, they forced him to enter with death threats.
The victim had no choice but to submit to the will of the criminals and so he had to watch how they took valuables out of his home and loaded them into the parked van without being able to do anything.
After removing the charges, the subjects left the scene. But before leaving, one of the suspects warned him that he should remain silent and inactive for a few minutes. According to the count made by the victim, they took more than $300,000 and $1,500 USD (around $700,000 at the exchange rate at which the currency is traded in the informal market).
This case inevitably refers to the string of violent acts of insecurity that have taken place in the last 7 days.
According to police and judicial sources, in the last week there have been at least seven violent robberies, thus establishing the worrying average of one robbery per day carried out with this type of modality.
On May 6, a gang of armed individuals assaulted the house of a man at 44 between 159 and 160, Olmos. With a ferocious beating they managed to take the place where he kept his savings and then they fled. As if that were not enough, they also took the victim’s clothes.
A day later, a 90-year-old retiree was surprised at dawn when she was resting by two thieves who entered her house after lifting a blind. They took her savings and jewelry. The event occurred in Belgrano and 408.
Just a few hours later, four armed criminals took possession of a million-dollar sum at an address of 138 between 45 and 46, San Carlos, after deploying a whole series of tortures, including beatings and mock amputations. The victims turned out to be a 22-year-old boy and his father. They also took home appliances, computer equipment and even a car.
The wave of crimes of this type continued in 75, between 2 and 3. A retiree who was returning from taking his dog for a walk, was surprised at 10:15 in the morning at the door of his house by three armed robbers who forced him to leave. get in. As soon as they had access to the place, they began to punish the man until they managed to “soften” him.
On May 12, a retired couple in Tolosa suffered a violent assault at their home located at calle 528, between 6 and 7. As this newspaper learned, four thugs acted aboard a white Volkswagen Gol Trend, which after bursting the Reversing the gate, they entered and attacked a retiree from whom they demanded “dollars”.
Just 48 hours ago, a retired couple whose residence is located in the Parque Saavedra area were surprised when they were sleeping at home and robbed by a gang of criminals.
This entrance took place on 14th and 68th streets, where to enter the home of this couple, 3 hooded thieves -described as “young, tall and thin”- and carrying firearms, scaled a wall on one side of the house, which is 6 meters high.
In all cases, in addition to causing severe material losses, the victims were left in deep shock due to the level of ferocity with which the thugs carried out the attacks. In the case of older adults, SAME personnel even had to intervene to stabilize their vital signs after the stressful situation experienced.
