Government Files Federal Case Over Milei Caravan Attack as Security Incidents Mount Across Argentina

The filing names three suspects, signaling a coordinated probe across jurisdictions.

Overview

  • Argentina’s Ministry of Security lodged a criminal complaint in federal court over the Lomas de Zamora incident involving President Javier Milei’s caravan, citing intimidation and attacks on authority with criminal co‑participation; Judge Federico Armella received the case and one suspect, Thiago Roman Florentín, was detained.
  • A ministry brief identifies Diego Martín Paz and José Marcelino Dabrowsky among those under scrutiny, though UFI No. 4 prosecutor Silvina Estévez decided not to take legal measures against Dabrowsky at this stage.
  • A viral video of a plainclothes officer pointing a gun on Avenida General Paz led police to identify all involved and open an inquiry for possible wrongdoing, with authorities reporting 4.5 million pesos found in a vehicle linked to the episode.
  • In Rosario, a Volkswagen Amarok driver tested 1.57 g/l blood alcohol after a collision that injured two motorcyclists; the driver was detained, municipal alcohol‑zero rules apply, and the case is before the Fiscalía de Siniestralidad Vial under orders from prosecutor Mariana Pronutto.
  • In Avellaneda, a police pursuit tied to an earlier crime in Buenos Aires ended in gunfire, a crash and two wounded detainees; officers seized a .32‑caliber revolver and UFI No. 4 Avellaneda‑Lanús is directing the case, while a separate fatal crash in San Luis killed a 64‑year‑old man and his 12‑year‑old grandson and left the driver hospitalized as investigators assess causes.
