Overview

• Luis Alberto Troche, 56, was fatally attacked Saturday inside his locutorio on Camino de Cintura in 9 de Abril, directly opposite Comisaría 3ra in Esteban Echeverría.
• More than five million pesos were found scattered and Troche’s valuables remained in the shop, sharpening a dispute between the case label of “homicidio en ocasión de robo” and police indications of a possible close‑circle assailant.
• The investigation is led by UFI N°2 under prosecutor Verónica Cifarelli, with forensic teams analyzing CCTV and trace evidence from the scene.
• According to the victim’s brother, the precinct chief told the family police “have the face” of the attacker from video but have not identified the person or shown the images to relatives.
• Hundreds of neighbors rallied outside the station, burning tires and blocking Camino de Cintura to demand transparency and greater security, as the suspect remains fugitive.
