Overview

• Pablo Grillo underwent a successful three-hour surgery on August 13 at Hospital Ramos Mejía to implant a cranial prosthesis and is recovering in intensive care.
• Under Judge María Servini’s orders, División Balística experts and peritos completed ballistics and planimetric reconstructions on August 11–12 to determine the projectile’s trajectory.
• A technical report from the Mapa de la Policía program included in the judicial file concluded that the gendarme’s use of a non-lethal projectile violated protocols.
• Gendarme Héctor Jesús Guerrero, the sole accused in the case, is scheduled to be formally questioned by Judge Servini on September 2.
• Grillo’s family has continued public appeals for blood donors and criticized Security Ministry policies, framing the shooting as part of an ‘anti-piquete’ operation.
