Police in Bahía Blanca searched two homes as part of an investigation into an armed robbery.[1] A court authorised the searches at addresses on Los Aromos at number 2800, and the Grupo de Apoyo Departamental (GAD) and the Comando de Patrullas took part.[1] In the second home officers found nothing linked to the robbery but seized a wrapper holding 7.2 grams of marijuana.[1]

Three people were detained: a 17-year-old described as one of the robbery suspects, a 22-year-old woman and a 19-year-old man.[1] At the first home police seized a .32-calibre revolver and detained the 17-year-old for notification.[1] In one room they found 10 grams of cocaine and a precision scale, and detained the 22-year-old woman over that find.[1] At the second home the 19-year-old was detained over the marijuana find.[1] He and the 22-year-old woman were linked to proceedings under Law 23.737, Argentina’s drug law.[1]

The case began with a complaint from a man who said armed men had intercepted him and a group of friends in the street and stolen a yellow Topmega bicycle with 29-inch wheels.[1] The UFIJ No. 19, a prosecutor’s investigation unit, the juvenile criminal responsibility prosecutor’s office No. 1 and the juvenile guarantee court No. 1 of the Bahía Blanca judicial department are handling the case.[1]
