Overview
- A weeks-long run of robberies and vandalism has struck shops in central City Bell, with windows smashed and goods stolen.
- Police mounted a broad operation in the main shopping zone on Calle Cantilo, yet officers reported no arrests tied to the attacks.
- Organizers scrapped a planned demonstration at the Comisaría Décima and said they will seek other ways to press for faster prevention.
- Shop owners say security cameras captured the culprits and some believe local tip-offs let them get away before officers arrive.
- Named stores include Rapsodia, Heladería H, Café Martínez, Calou and Tiza, and at least one owner says he has been sleeping at his shop out of fear.
