They were minutes of fury and extreme violence.

This Saturday night, a woman

destroyed a

 high-end vehicle in Santa Fe

with a fire extinguisher

. It happened in the middle of the street and the sequence was recorded by the neighbors.

While the attack was taking place, the owner of the car - a renowned lawyer - 

was found unconscious inside his apartment

, apparently due to an excessive intake of medications.

The 37-year-old woman -identified as Yésica Martínez- 

was detained by the Police

.

According to sources in the case, the aggressor had

an "informal relationship"

with the owner of the attacked vehicle and had had

previous conflicts

, although none had this level of violence.

The incident took place around

9:00 p.m.

on

Boulevard Gálvez at 1400

, in the Candioti neighborhood, a very busy area in the center of the provincial capital.

Martínez 

destroyed a

white

BMW

-model X5- that was parked in front of a building

with a fire extinguisher

: he dented the hood, broke the optics, forced the doors, and pulverized the rear-view mirrors.

And he even had time

to climb on the roof to break the sliding glass

.

Upset by the noises, the neighbors called the police.

Meanwhile, they filmed the scene with their cell phones, worthy of the movie "Wild Tales". 

The damaged vehicle belongs to a renowned Santa Fe criminal lawyer

Raúl Berizzo

, who was in one of the building's apartments when his truck was attacked.

According to police sources informed

Clarín

, a son of Berizzo arrived desperately at the place and went up to his father's apartment, who did not answer calls to his cell phone or to the entrance door.

It was finally opened by a locksmith.

There, she found him

lying on a bed, passed out

.

Doctors who arrived in an ambulance from Cobem examined him and found that it was likely that his state of unconsciousness could be due to

an ingestion of drugs

.

He was later transferred to Cullen Hospital.

Meanwhile, the woman continued beating the truck.

After discovering the state of his father's health, the lawyer's son was the one who approached the scene.

"I am not hitting you because you are a woman, if you were a man I would have screwed you up," he shouted, as heard in the recorded video.

After the long sequence of screams and blows, a patrol car appeared on the scene, which first followed by and then returned to the scene.

Finally, personnel from the Third Section of the Candioti Sur neighborhood arrived where the accident was taking place.

At first, two female officers tried to calm the aggressor, but the woman continued yelling and hitting the vehicle.

For this reason, they had to remove her from the car by force and proceed to arrest her.

Unbridled fury

Once she was transferred to the police station, the woman

continued with her state of fury

: she struggled with police personnel and the attack went to a desk where a computer was located.

In turn,

he kicked a noncommissioned officer who tried to calm her down

.

The prosecutor on duty at the Public Prosecutor's Office, Lucila Nuzzo, ordered the woman to be carried out toxicological tests and ordered that a case be initiated for "qualified damage", "attack" and "resistance to authority."
