Overview
- Police in Miraflores detained Paolo César Valer Gálvez, 29, after a hit-and-run that left municipal cleaner Hilda Herrera, 53, gravely injured.
- Hours earlier in San Juan de Lurigancho, a 19-year-old passenger reported he attempted to sexually assault her inside the taxi before she escaped and filed a complaint at the Diez de Octubre station.
- A fare paid via Yape by the passenger’s friend identified the driver by name, helping officers link the suspect to both incidents.

- Miraflores officers intercepted the car and transferred custody to Depincri 1 for a criminal investigation that includes the In Drive ride and the alleged hit-and-run.
