LimaPuno Crime and Safety Crisis: Miraflores Execution, Huancané Bar Fire and Los Olivos Kidnapping Under Investigation

Authorities caution identifications remain unconfirmed, with motives under review.

Overview

  • Police say a man was executed with at least 14 shots on the Malecón de la Reserva in Miraflores, where documents bearing the name Dennis Jesús Sánchez Ramírez were found but full identification is pending.
  • Municipal security videos trace the victim’s route from Chorrillos and indicate the assailant steered him to a dark, low-traffic spot near the cliff before the attack.
  • Forensic teams recovered 14 spent casings and a key linked to a grey Nissan Tiida (plate D0L-338) parked nearby, which is being examined by Depincri and criminalistics units.
  • In Puno, a karaoke/bar fire in Huancané left ten dead and three gravely injured; with no local fire brigade, responders came from Juliaca as prosecutors and police probe a suspected gas explosion and safety breaches.
  • Other cases under active inquiry include a Los Olivos kidnapping with the victim released in San Martín de Porres, a woman shot dead in a Callao cevichería, a Puente Piedra manager wounded by gunfire, and a Huaycán entertainer killed outside his home.
