Overview
- Police detained 53-year-old businessman G. P. after executing three judicial search warrants the week of November 5 that investigators say tied him to the case.
- The robbery took place in the early morning of September 9 when three armed intruders entered a Maschwitz Privado home through a window, threatened a family and stole about $2,000, handbags and appliances.
- Officers seized four handbags recognized by the victims, a Taurus 9mm pistol with its serial number removed, ten cartridges and the Dodge RAM alleged to have been used to bring two accomplices into the country.
- Two alleged accomplices remain at large and police say they are conducting an active manhunt across the region.
- Investigators are examining whether the suspect rented properties in other gated communities to replicate the same access tactic, and the victim family has publicly accused the homeowners’ council of failing to respond after their 14-year-old dog was killed during the assault.
