Police in San Salvador de Jujuy detained a man on Saturday after his partner told officers he had intended to attack her and might be carrying a firearm.[1] Motorised patrols were passing the barrios Almirante Brown and San Francisco de Álava, near calle Telui, when the 911 tower sent them to a report of gender violence.[1] The man was inside a vehicle when officers took him into custody.[1]

With the duty prosecutor’s assistant’s authorisation, police searched a Renault Duster truck.[1] The search found 232 grams of marijuana and 796 grams of pasta base, a cocaine derivative.[1] Officers also seized 282,800 pesos in cash and a firearm.[1]

The truck was seized as evidence and the case went to the courts.[1] The man was taken to a police station and held at the disposal of the courts pending further proceedings.[1]
