An
extortion for money
and a shootout carried out by criminals to show that they were
willing to do anything
, ended Sunday night with the
death of a woman
terrified by the attack.
The episode occurred minutes before 10 p.m., in the north of Rosario.
A car dealership, whose owner has been receiving
requests for money for two months to avoid being attacked
, was shot by a man who, according to what could be reconstructed, got off a motorcycle where an accomplice was waiting for him.
A few meters from the store, a
62-year-old
woman
who was waiting for the bus in the Rondeau area at 4100
tried to run to take refuge
when she heard the shots.
Scared by the episode and afflicted by a heart condition that she suffered, Marta Agüero
fainted when she tried to flee
.
Upon arrival, the doctors found that he had died of a cardiorespiratory arrest.
The moment of the shooting attack on a car dealership in Rosario.
The
video of the attack
shows how they attack the car dealership "Rosario Norte", located at Rondeau 4177. A man comes to the door of the premises on the run, raises his gun and
shoots nine times
.
The crystals break.
Others are splintered.
The cement columns, inside the place, were left with the
marks
caused by the impact of the bullets.
Inside the store there were no people at that time.
Omar V., owner of the concessionaire, began receiving extortion two months ago.
Through WhatsApp they asked him
"25 gringas"
, in obvious reference to a high amount of money in
dollars
.
To intimidate him, even the man who contacted him gave him to understand in the messages that he is serving
a sentence in jail
: “I have 37 years x my back.
He seems like a little friend to you ”.
“I warn you, the days run.
I give you time until Monday.
I'll handle it later
”, he insists that he hasten the payment of the required money.
The merchant refused to pay and denounced the situation, which was repeated last week.
On Sunday the attack was finally consummated.
“It is crazy to pay money for the protection of these people,
a method that the Italian mafia used
more than one hundred and fifty years ago.
There are people who unfortunately pay and thus continue with the business ”, complained Omar V. bitterly, who says he is tired of reporting and not receiving protection.
Now he is evaluating the possibility of avoiding attention to the public or directly
closing his premises
, with which he has worked for 25 years.
He does not rule out even
leaving the city
.
Although the Justice works on the complaints
,
permanent
custody was not provided
on the premises.
From the Witness Protection program they only contact him to monitor what happens with him.
On Sunday night he had to break the news of the inevitable attack.
Justice was working on Monday to try to identify the aggressor.
Omar V. will testify in the afternoon.
One more time.
