A street vendor and former soccer player was shot dead in the Las Flores neighborhood of Rosario. It was Cristian David Pérez, better known as Chicha , who painted to have a promising career in the world of soccer, but a torn ligament in 2009 played a trick on him.
Pérez became inferior in Boca until the fateful injury came. Then he returned to Rosario. He even got to try his luck in Lazio in Italy and even has a photo with Lionel Messi. He stood out as a scorer in the Liga Rosarina and, according to the first versions, the crime would have been due to a reckoning.
Consulted by El Ciudadano, from Rosario, Ernesto Rey, historical technical director of Alianza Sport who knew how to have Chicha as 9 in his squad, gave him high praise. He remembered it as "a phenomenon" and assured that "it had impressive power".
Chicha Pérez was assassinated in Rosario.
According to the newspaper La Capital, the only version of what happened comes from his environment: “He was inside the house; from outside they shouted 'Chicha', he answered and immediately shot the door ” . One of the shots entered an armpit and affected his heart, killing him on the way to the hospital.
From the family they maintain as a motive for the crime that Chicha had become a boyfriend with a woman whose ex-partner is imprisoned for crimes related to drug trafficking. For now there are no detainees.
