00:00On February 3rd, attention, a police officer, you're going to see it in action now,
00:05is going to liquidate, is going to end up with a criminal.
00:09This is Tucumán and Route 8, for those who know the place,
00:13a meter from one of the bus stops,
00:16in the context of a violent morning, another violent morning,
00:20in the Conurbano, in the northern area on February 3rd.
00:25There you see what happens, this public server that was in Franco,
00:30dressed as a civilian, and who, resisting a robbery,
00:34is going to disassemble his gun, so there was an exchange of shots
00:39that ended up with one of the criminals.
00:42The criminal who that day got up to steal, to be a criminal,
00:48and the police officer who got up to work, who was dressed as a civilian,
00:53and in this permanent struggle there is,
00:56of the criminal who ruins people's lives,
01:00lost the criminal. Germán, how are you? Good morning.
01:02How are you, Guille? Good morning.
01:04Yes, do you know where it happened? It's going to ring a bell.
01:06A block away from Route 8.
01:08The village where, or the emergency neighborhood.
01:11You mention many neighbors in this place.
01:13Of course, where the adulterated cocaine came from,
01:16about three years ago.
01:18Operating center of drug trafficking.
01:20Controlled, you understand, in regards to drug trafficking,
01:24but the insecurity is still latent.
01:26District limits again, with the San Miguel limit.
01:30Look, the sub-assistant of the San Martín police, Esteban Brownstein,
01:34went out with his motorcycle that day.
01:37They lock him up, he went out with the bicycle, rather,
01:40they lock him up, two motorcyclists, with a motorcycle.
01:43The man, do you know what he does?
01:45He searches within his belongings,
01:48as if to presumably deliver the cell phone.
01:51He gave him time to disassemble his 9mm regulatory weapon
01:55and he liquidated them, he liquidated one,
01:57he gave the other one time to escape.
02:00They call it prosecution, because they are analyzing the images.
02:03And you know how this is, Guille,
02:05that justice is sometimes very favorable for criminals.
02:10Because of the act of the civilian police,
02:13who did nothing but defend his life,
02:16and as you said, he did manage to disassemble.
02:19We have many examples over the years
02:21where the police shoot, take out the gun and end up killing him.
02:24Well, let's see, what they question is that.
02:26The weapon, whether or not the criminals had it,
02:28is accused of homicide.
02:31The police will be declaring in a matter of minutes.
02:35I consulted the prosecutor, Dr. Jovine,
02:38from the UFI 1 in San Martín.
02:40If there is a possibility that he will be arrested, he does not answer me.
02:43But I understand that internal affairs are also being investigated.
02:46Guille, the police cannot take out the gun,
02:49they practically have to deliver everything.
02:51He cannot fulfill his function as a public servant
02:54if he is out of his schedule.
02:56It is bureaucracy that harms everyone.
02:59And you know what? It ends up condemning him to death.
03:02Because where one of these garbage
03:04realizes that the civilian police have a gun,
03:07they kill him and steal the gun.
03:09Excuse me, is Elmira Polacco there working live on February 3?
03:12Elmira, how are you? Good morning.
03:15We are here on Tucumán Street where it all happened.
03:18And these two criminals were armed.
03:21Guys, we covered all week how they murder without stealing anything.
03:25In fact, the victims surrender,
03:27and yet they shot a man in the neck in Villadelín.
03:30The woman we covered, the nurse,
03:32was shot in the stomach to steal the vehicle
03:35and leave it lying 20 meters away.
03:37Well, here we are in the place.
03:39These two criminals were doing a raid.
03:42They come through this street, through Tucumán,
03:44they intercept this police officer who was on a bike.
03:47And the police officer, what happened was a miracle.
03:49Because we see how the criminals
03:51directly take things away from you,
03:53take what they can.
03:55They don't even know you have a gun.
03:57They take everything from you.
03:59Well, this police officer had the lucidity
04:01to tell them he was about to give them the phone.
04:03Therefore, he kneels here on this sidewalk,
04:05starts stirring in his backpack,
04:07and that's when he takes out his gun and starts shooting.
04:10If we listen to the audio,
04:12you can easily hear six shots.
04:14Therefore, it is necessary to see
04:16if there was a turn by the criminals,
04:18if any of them came to shoot.
04:20What if a criminal ends up here,
04:21and the other one is on the run?
04:23The police is looking for him.
04:25But we are, look, what we see here behind me is Route 8.
04:29Crossing Route 8, where these criminals were heading,
04:32is the emergency neighborhood La Esperanza.
04:35And here next to it, less than 30 meters away,
04:38we have the entrance to Porta 8.
04:41Here also intervenes, well,
04:43the justice of Remedios de Escalada,
04:45of San Martín too, and of course,
04:47everything that has to do with February 3rd.
04:49But we are surrounded by emergency neighborhoods, Guillermo.
04:51Listen to the key, let me go over it with the people.
04:54With the audio, I'm going to ask the director,
04:56what does the shooting mean
04:58between this civilian police officer?
05:00What does he do?
05:02In his eagerness to defend his own life,
05:04he shoots the criminals.
05:06It's impressive, and this is experienced daily
05:08in the urban area. Listen.
05:21In the red circle, the shooting scene.
05:24We reiterate, this violent morning.
05:34Where the civilian police officer
05:36ends the life of a criminal.
05:39With antecedents.
05:41With antecedents.
05:43With antecedents.
05:45With antecedents.
05:47With antecedents.
05:50With antecedents.
05:52Let's add this.
05:54We were going to go to that.
05:56Many, if not all,
05:58those who go out to steal
06:00have frivolous antecedents.
06:02And this is also the case
06:04of the criminal who was killed, Germán.
06:06This is the area,
06:08the famous triangle in the districts
06:10where there is a river,
06:12where there is a road,
06:14where there is an important route.
06:16And nobody takes charge.
06:18There you have the map.
06:20There it is. That's the Camino del Buen Aire.
06:22Route 8, the climb to the Camino del Buen Aire.
06:25What you see, with some buildings
06:27a little more irregular,
06:29is Puerta 8.
06:31The reference in red
06:33is where Selmira is.
06:35Exactly. Tucumán and Route 8.
06:37That street leads to Puerta 8,
06:39from what the investigators understand,
06:41that the other of the criminals, the fugitive,
06:43lives in that emergency neighborhood.
06:45From there they distributed the drugs
06:47to what was Urlingan, San Martín.
06:49It's an impenetrable, Puerta 8.
06:51There they enter the National Security Forces,
06:53the police, the province,
06:55and they don't go in.
06:57Do you know what's at the end?
06:59Over there, Selmira, you can see it.
07:01A mobile phone of the police
07:03that has no motor.
07:05It has two police officers
07:07with lice.
07:09The famous Falopa mobile phones.
07:11What is there is useless.
07:13Now I'm going to what you said
07:15that is impenetrable.
07:17Selmira, I want to go with you,
07:19with the neighbors,
07:21with what Germán called
07:23a jungle of cement
07:25and emergency neighborhoods
07:27that make it very easy
07:29for these murderers.
07:31Today we reiterate one of them
07:33who was shot by a police officer.
07:35Let's see, Selmira.
07:37If you are afraid, we understand.
07:39Because there people live in fear.
07:41Yes, I'm trying.
07:43I'm trying to talk to some neighbors,
07:45but let's go to the place
07:47of these neighbors.
07:49They live here on Tucumán Street.
07:51Next to it we have the entrance
07:53to Porta Ocho.
07:55Crossing the route La Esperanza.
07:57On the other side,
07:59you also have Remedios de Escalada.
08:01Therefore, they live in a situation
08:03where they cannot expose themselves
08:05to the insecurity that they live
08:07in the neighborhoods.
08:09And this happens to us
08:11in the most insecure neighborhoods
08:13that perhaps the merchants
08:15have a lot of hermeticism.
08:17This was yesterday at 6 a.m.
08:19I mean, there was a terrible movement
08:21on Route 8 and all the neighbors
08:23left their homes to go to work.
08:25Therefore, many saw what happened
08:27and prefer to shut up,
08:29they prefer not to count
08:31for their own security.
08:33Therefore, we still can't talk
08:35to any neighbor.
08:37Gentleman, can I ask you a question?
08:39How is it to live here in Churruca?
08:41Come a little closer to the microphone.
08:42Yes, I heard the shots at 6 a.m.
08:44And did you go out to see?
08:46No, no, no. When I left at noon,
08:48there was this tape here,
08:50all in my house.
08:52Ah, there is the police tape, yes.
08:54Of course.
08:56Is it normal to hear shots here?
08:58No, precisely with the neighbor
09:00we are talking about
09:02that it was a quiet place
09:04and well, that just happened yesterday.
09:06That is, living in the midst
09:08of these emergency neighborhoods
09:10in Porta Ocho de la Esperanza
09:12that have been followed,
09:14attempted robberies.
09:16At least here in this neighborhood,
09:18no, now I don't know about
09:20Esperanza, Libertador.
09:22But here in my neighborhood
09:24it is quiet, except for what
09:26happened yesterday.
09:28So you didn't go to see,
09:30but what do the neighbors say
09:32when they went to see this criminal
09:34or the victim,
09:36that now the policeman is a civilian
09:38and is charged with attempted
09:40robbery of a person,
09:42the one who died.
09:44I think it would have been
09:46a warning to the police,
09:48some shots in the air.
09:50Okay, that's fine.
09:52Thank you very much.
09:54It's complicated because
09:56imagine that a policeman
09:58comes out to warn
10:00with two men who are armed
10:02and pointing him.
10:04It is a neighborhood
10:06where people are afraid.
10:07face and we protect that, no, but there is a mentality that I think we have to change that
10:14is part of a cultural battle that must be given, that is, we are here on the side of the policeman
10:21who goes out every day to put his chest to the bullets and who many times ends up being a
10:25fatal victim in this case he was dressed as a civilian and as Franco now if we are going to have to
10:31listen to a neighbor who tells us well the one who died must understand that he is a person he is a
10:37person who came out with a gun that was willing to cry to fan the policeman and I reiterate if he
10:42found the gun and realized that he was a civilian policeman he killed him in the act because these
10:46are what apply to you in the death penalty we are going to review the story we are going to ask the
10:51policeman to shoot in the air while you hit the gun here they hit him here in the head but
10:56it's okay we respect the testimonies when we are going to do a journalistic job but to see in the
11:02context of common sense it seems to me that the thought today of the common denominator of the
11:07people is gentlemen this civilian policeman defended himself because if he did not kill him
11:11there is a square nothing more than there is already stuck to door 8 the neighbors live more with
11:20the criminals than with the police in that sense that's why you have to be merciful
11:27with the one who goes out to rob every day and take into account that you have to give him a warning with a
11:31gun nothing I don't want to do it either I don't want to do it personally but I say every day put me
11:36back please because people are already writing to us on our instagram and the news there are
11:41many people who live there who do not want to face it but they tell us and not what this man just said
11:47I already have 56 of those but put it with audio to review the image again police dressed in
11:53Franco's day Franco's day and a civilian who shoots himself in this way listen to him
12:05on a bicycle to route 8 there he goes they already locked him up they take the bicycle
12:16they wanted what they had in the bag of course and in the bag they had weapons of course they did not expect that of course surprise
12:25they know what I have here
12:30here they give me more info the gendarmerie seized a replica of caliber 9 millimeters
12:36that is why the information that I gave you at the beginning that there had not been an exchange of
12:40shots but if they were squandering a weapon of course watching the video and listening
12:44analyzing I realized that there was not an exchange of shots that is why he consulted the prosecutor
12:51if there was a possibility that he takes some kind of temperament he tells me that he was not obviously
12:55charged with murder and he will declare in a matter of hours but they had a replica and that is
13:01interpreted as a real weapon for justice, it will not be a guarantor in this matter, well
13:08the only thing missing is that they tell us well, the police first have to ask this
13:16weapon or the neighbor is it true or a lie, you can kill me, but hey, yes, but I
13:22felt that common, but not for justice, this criminal is taken by a guarantor lawyer, the case
13:29or a lawyer takes those famous prisoners and with these images that we have that we are sharing
13:35they get the police to be learned that I can assure you well then we have called
13:41justice gentlemen let's apply the common sense let's defend the people who defend us let's defend
13:46the people who, although civil and frank, still carrying their weapon, is a citizen who is
13:54being assaulted and that in addition those who soften a weapon in this case the criminals or one of
14:00them, even if it is a weapon, a replica or whatever it was, the police do not realize that it has been
14:06warned that they are very similar, we have seen there are weapons that are this replica and real weapons
14:12and you say you cannot distinguish which one but the police have not threatened me either, more data
14:17the officer his assistant who is San Martín arrived at his house after completing the service
14:21his Franco had not yet slept there you also have in some way a situation that would give him
14:29an advantage not after completing the service surely of 24 hours because most of the police
14:34perform services plus the additional hours you will not be able to tell the police you realized
14:39that it was a replica or not evidently he acted he came tired he arrived at his home and he is attacked
14:47by these scoundrels who are from the neighborhood of the same neighborhood where the police live, that is why
14:52the family must also be protected so that they do not take revenge, that is why the neighbor said what he
14:58just said because of the fear they have of these people who dominate the neighborhood, unfortunately the reality
15:03of this neighborhood of the conurb to see what these images show us from the news portal that
15:09later, well, they were added to the whole TV, but from what the images show us, we are seeing
15:15a fact that is repeated with many people and we reiterate with antecedents of policemen who could not
15:21count it, that is why what you say is fundamental because just as everyone in the neighborhood knows each other,
15:26because this man was on a bicycle, he had already finished his work as a policeman, he was a civilian and
15:31already a Franco, they know in this area they know where each one lives, they saw when we were children, we
15:37in the neighborhood knew where such a neighbor lived, such another blah blah and how far the chorro lived
15:42that they did not steal in the neighborhood, well here it is the same but they already steal in the neighborhood and knowing that he is a
15:48policeman, they can even go for him precisely to steal the gun, I can't tell you what they charge
15:53because they are giving me a bicycle, say it, no, say 400, 500 thousand pesos, additional areas, it goes a little more, maybe they reach a million,
16:02let's see, you saw that it is a reality, I know many policemen, they have a goal, they buy a
16:102005, 2006, 2010 car, motorcycles are no longer bought because they know that they are going to be victims of their own
16:18insecurity and the law limits them at the time of acting, obviously this has to be declared
16:24before the prosecutor and I came for homicide, the policeman tries to avoid that, he went on a bicycle, he returns on a bicycle
16:32to serve, we are talking about public servants, they are public servants, and he lives there, of course,
16:37if he is a neighbor of the neighborhood, the neighborhood is very dangerous, very spicy, I would also tell the
16:43guys to have a lot of protection there in the area, because it is a historically hot neighborhood, but that in the
16:48last few years, with the dominance that the narco had in that area, it became a lot, but much more complicated, it is the triangle,
16:56the end of February 3, historically abandoned by previous managements, Hugo Curto, I understand that he was 40 years old,
17:02he never did anything for that area, it is a very peripheral area, what is called the Reconquista Geographic Area,
17:09which is from Avenida Márquez to the bottom, towards the Reconquista River, San Martín and February 3, a very spicy area,
17:15very complicated, which needs, yes or yes, also an integral intervention of security and social development.
17:21Sure, well, Selmira, let's see, you have a testimony, let's go to Selmira, let's see, Selmira Polaco with me.
17:27We are here with a neighbor from Puerta 8, gentleman, did you hear everything that happened yesterday?
17:31Yes, I was awake just when the whole event happened.
17:36What did you hear?
17:37I heard two shots, and then I got up and went to see what was going on, and I saw the little boy lying down.
17:42And the police were still there?
17:44The police were not there, the police were not there, only the boy lying down, there was no one else.
17:47Very good, and is it normal to hear shots here?
17:50From time to time, yes, like everything, but it is the first time that I see this event here.
17:57Is the neighborhood unsafe?
17:59Yes, yes, no, for those who do not know, yes.
18:02But for those who live in Puerta 8, it is not so unsafe?
18:05No, it's not so unsafe, but I like it.
18:09Are there police and patrols in the area?
18:11Yes, the truth is that there are quite a few, I can't complain about that, because there are policemen around here.
18:15And about the criminals, did you recognize any, maybe by video and others, by motorcycle?
18:19No, I know it was from around here, but I didn't know him, I didn't have him, I didn't know him.
18:24Have you ever been robbed?
18:25Not here, but I've seen, I've seen everything.
18:30Very good, well, thank you very much.
18:31Well, as he tells us, he is from Puerta 8, the gentleman, and he tells us that if you are from the neighborhood, it is quiet to live there.
18:37Yes, he has seen facts of insecurity, but in his case, as he is from the neighborhood, nothing happens.
18:42That from time to time, yes, shots are heard, Guillermo.
