A couple of rural producers from 25 de Mayo, in Misiones, were surprised in their home by criminals who beat them fiercely and escaped with about two million pesos in cash. The Police arrested a suspect after he spent more than 70,000 pesos on alcoholic beverages and when they raided the house they seized 140,000 Pesos, which are believed to be part of what was stolen.
The victims are 72 years old and had to be hospitalized. The man suffered numerous blows to the face and head, a two-centimetre cut on his left ear and severe head trauma that caused him to lose consciousness.
