After the burning of a police van parked in front of a police station in the southern area of Rosario and a new shooting against a prison unit, the Santa Fe Ministry of Security ordered to fence sections of Rosario to prevent attacks.
Despite the secrecy with which the resolution was handled, in addition to the two attacks that occurred on Wednesday, there was information that circulated among members of the security force that refers to the possibility of new attacks.
This Thursday the sub 24th and 20th police stations were fenced off, both located in Empalme Graneros, the same neighborhood where an 11-year-old boy was killed last month as part of a drug dispute, which caused a crowd of neighbors.
The third is the 12th, in the Ludueña neighborhood.

It is evaluated if the reinforcement extends to others.
One of them would be the 15th, attacked on Wednesday.
There, unknown persons set fire to a patrol car located in front of the police station.
They also left an intimidating note.
"Stop taking money from the giles, corrupt
," the message said.
The vehicle was totally destroyed.
Without talking about the measure to fence some sectionals that he adopted a day later, the Santa Fe Security Minister, Claudio Brilloni, already warned on Wednesday his concern with what happened.

The official not only described the incident as serious, but also admitted that the two policemen who were driving in the attacked vehicle had gotten out to hand over a detainee.
"There we found a vulnerable point that was taken advantage of," Brilloni said.
This element, the threats to some sectionals and the way in which some are built –in some cases they have glazed sectors– led to extreme security measures.
The 12th section, one of those that was arranged to protect, was attacked in recent months.
In February of last year she was attacked with bullets.
This year, in January, it suffered another attack: unknown persons threw Molotov cocktails, which caused the fire of four cars parked in front of the entrance of the sectional.
At dawn on Wednesday, a patrol car was set on fire in front of the 15th police station and left a mafia message.

Two were individuals and belonged to police personnel and another two were kidnapped by court order.
The decision to fence off public offices has been applied for a long time in Rosario.
Metal fences were put up on the streets surrounding the Criminal Justice Center for months.
They were placed at the start of high-impact trials against Ariel "Guille" Cantero and Esteban Alvarado, two of the main criminals in Rosario.
