A gendarme killed a motorcycle and injured another in El Jagüel
One motochorro died and another was seriously injured in early March, after shooting with a policeman who wanted to steal his motorcycle in El Jagüel, a town that also belongs to Esteban Echeverría.
The event occurred at the corner of Entre Ríos and Miguel Ángel. Police spokesmen reported that a 52-year-old assistant sergeant of the Argentine National Gendarmerie (GNA) who worked as a driver in the municipality of Ezeiza, was traveling aboard his Bajaj motorcycle.
Upon reaching the intersection, the gendarme was surprised by two young men who were riding a Rouser motorcycle without a license plate. The companion threatened him with a firearm to make him hand over his shot.
Faced with this situation, the gendarme identified himself as such and took out his service weapon, after which there was a brief shooting that ended when both criminals were shot, one fatally.
As a result of the shots he suffered, the criminal who was accompanying the motorcycle, identified by the Buenos Aires Police as Agustín Romero, 19, died instantly.
While his accomplice, identified as Mario Elías Pérez (20) received a bullet wound to the chest and another to the head, for which he was transferred to a nearby hospital, where he remained hospitalized in a reserved state.
