Overview

• Marcos Natanael Sánchez pleaded guilty in a juicio abreviado and received his sentence on August 15, 2025, for the May 29, 2024 attack at a service station in Rosario.
• The conviction covers public intimidation, aggravated robbery, property damage and illegal possession of a war-type firearm.
• Court records show Sánchez and an unidentified accomplice left a handwritten note for Ángel Di María before firing at least four shots at the station’s glass facade on bulevar Oroño and Lamadrid.
• Investigators determined Sánchez used a motorcycle stolen three days earlier and recovered the vehicle abandoned near Flammarion and Uriburu after the shooting.
• Prosecutors and the provincial court continue parallel probes into other suspects and alleged organizers of the 'Los Rosarinos' intimidation campaign that had delayed Di María’s return to Rosario Central.
