Overview
- Police and the provincial security minister confirmed that Alma Celeste Britos has been located and is in good health under the care of her family and authorities.
- Investigators had said she was last seen at the downtown bar El Ruedo at the corner of 27 de Abril and Obispo Trejo, and that family contact stopped after that sighting.
- The Ministerio Público Fiscal had issued a public search alert and asked citizens to report tips to Unidad Judicial N.º1 at Balcarce 251 to help reconstruct her movements.
- Officials had faced a key obstacle in the search because there was no precise description of the clothing Alma wore, which complicated reviews of security-camera footage in the area.
- The case drew intense public concern because it followed the recent femicide in the province, prompting protests and renewed scrutiny of police and judicial response to disappearances of minors.
