Overview
- The 17-year-old was detained in Tigre after covert work by the local patrol chief and the GTO, and is suspected in the January 9 break-in at Mónica Mancini’s Martínez home.
- Following his arrest, the suspect was placed in a La Plata youth center under the jurisdiction of San Isidro’s Juvenile Responsibility Prosecutor’s Office.
- In a separate San Isidro pursuit, officers captured a 15-year-old with an active arrest order and an adult, seizing a delivery-branded backpack with burglary tools and a cellphone.
- Investigators say Banda del Millón leaders directed robberies via video calls from provincial prison units, using youths to carry out ‘entraderas’.
- Recovered data from an alleged leader’s phone indicated 171 marked targets across Vicente López, San Isidro, and San Fernando, and the wider network remains under investigation.
