A Merlo merchant went out to chase five thieves and they responded with a nine-shot shootout. The criminals had stolen the truck and two thousand dollars from the partner of the man who tried to follow them.
The assault took place in front of the victims' party hall and the escape and stalking raid traveled several blocks until the violent reaction. Private security cameras captured the terrifying moment of the shooting. The Functional Instruction Unit (UFI) 1 of Morón is in charge of the investigation and established a series of measures to identify the criminals.
