The items seized from García's house.
According to what Rossi told the media,
the four members of the gang are considered "co-authors" of the murder
.
"We have four perpetrators of the incident, not one (…) The tasks were distributed first to commit the theft of a vehicle and then the second attempted robbery in which this tragedy occurred. It is very clear that the four are co-authors," he said .
Detectives analyzed security camera images prior to the crime and identified two other suspects.

A security camera recorded the passage of the suspects in Umma's murder.
One is MPRM (its name is not disclosed so as not to make search tasks difficult).
What is known is that he is 20 years old and is from Fiorito's band, like AER, of the same age and known by the alias
"Pelusa"
.
Both remained at large until early this Tuesday afternoon, although the measures were incessant.
Only his nickname is known about the last of the accused.
They call him "Barrita" or "Baltazar."

Her parents were taking her to the doctor when they were attacked at the door of their house in Villa Centenario.
MPRM was
identified by a fingerprint found inside the Toyota Corolla
that the criminals used to assault Uma's parents.
They stole it from a merchant, named Ariel, on the corner of Virgen de Itatí and Cosquín, a kilometer from where they later murdered the girl.
The young man has two criminal records in the City of Buenos Aires: one for "
cover-up
" from June 2022 and another for "
theft
" from May 2023.
Video
A camera was able to capture the moment of the alleged attempted robbery of a custodian of Patricia Bullrich.
In the last few hours there were raids in Villa Fiorito and Villa La Cava, but they did not find him.
However, they kidnapped a jacket that he allegedly used in the failed assault on Officer Aguilera and his wife, also PFA agent María Eugenia Rodríguez Álvarez (41).
The car was abandoned after Uma's crime in Darwin and Canada, in Villa Fiorito.
"It was all very fast. About ten seconds. When I realized I already had them on top of me," Ariel told channel
A24
.
The Toyota Corolla used by Uma's murderers.
"I stand in front of the car to try to do something out of desperation," said the merchant, who explained that a witness told him that the criminals "shoot and miss."
Uma was murdered when her parents were preparing to take her for a medical check-up.
Aguilera accelerated her gray Ford Ka to escape from her and protect her, but the robbers fired shots.
A shot hit the girl in the back of the head, and she died a little later at the Churruca Hospital.
To all this, Bullrich claimed: "If you do it once and do it the second time, you're going inside.
Stop going around with sentences that last six years and during those years they continue committing crimes
. Stop being on the side of criminals. "A change in favor of the victims and the people and against the murderers and criminals is absolutely necessary."

The Minister of Security reaffirmed her statements about the criminals who killed Uma.
"We consider that (the case) has been random, that it was some criminals who saw a car leaving and well... I don't think there is any other type of hypothesis, at least it is not what any security force handles. It was one of the many incidents of insecurity that happen, it is a very complex area of Lomas de Zamora, a crime hot zone," he said during an interview with
Urbana Play radio
