- A group later vandalized and set fire to the accused child’s home, prompting a major security operation to prevent a lynching.
- Public schools across General Pueyrredon are closed today under a 24-hour strike and mobilization called by SUTEBA, STM, ATE, FEB, and Udocba to denounce violence in schools.
- The investigation is assigned to the Fuero de Responsabilidad Penal Juvenil under prosecutor Mariana Baqueiro, and authorities emphasize the boy is not punishable due to his age.
