Meanwhile, the prosecutor of the case, Fabricio Iovine of St. Martin, this afternoon ordered the emergency apprehension of another suspect who intimidated the victim and investigates whether he was also armed.

The earliest detainee was identified as Leandro Morales (29), alias “Buffalo”, who resides in Loma Hermosa, Three of February party. He is accused of being the owner and driver of one of the bikes that participated in the persecution of Sagardoy, who was 32 years old and was the father of a child under 15, employed in the carpentry of the Easy.As it was known, Morales was received as a chef , for four months he had worked as a monitor or visualizer at the Operational Monitoring Center (COM) of the Municipality of San Martín and has no criminal record. A 200 cubic cubic black, white and blue Motomel Skua film was also hijacked in the procedure.

The kidnapped motorbike, owned by the second arrested for the crime of the innocent man.

The other involved wanted by investigators is accused of being one of two people who descended from their vehicles to intimidate the victim.
Always in accordance with this hypothesis, the alleged perpetrator of the shooting would be Guillermo Nicolás Gómez (26), who was the first arrested in the case.
“We are taking statements and defining who they are and what role each of those involved played. In that context, we want to know if the second person (by the wanted suspect) who got out of one of the vehicles was also armed,” a judicial investigator told the Télam agency. The reconstruction done so far by the prosecution reveals that not all members of that group – apparently eight people – who pursued Sagardoy’s van knew that there were people with guns and willing to use it.” The most committed are the detainee, who has already admitted in his inquest that he came down armed and who approached the victim’s car on the side from where the shooting came from, and another who accompanied him and we do not know if he was also armed” , added the source. The prosecutor already took a testimonial to several of the group who participated in the persecution, who during the night of the crime and before starting the hunt that ended in the murder ate a roast. Yesterday they declared who was travelling in the Renault Master van – a person who about 15 days ago reported an attempted robbery at his home – and the occupants of a Fiat Palio, while it remains to determine who was riding a motorbike. The detainee Gomez, for his part, was in a Peugeot Partner van with someone else. In his inquest, Gomez said the gun was not his, that he took it from the Partner van where he was traveling and referred to it as “the 40” – in reference to the alleged caliber – but the family indicated that from what he was told in the hospital it was thought that the bullet that killed Sagardoy was 22.The event occurred at 0.20 last Saturday in the corner of Montevideo and San Pedro, Villa Ballester, match of San Martín, where Sagardoy was shot that entered him by the right armpit. The victim accelerated believing it was a robbery and injured, injured him to Eva Perón Hospital where he dyed for two days and died on Monday afternoon. Those close to the victim themselves brought investigators to one of the participants of the fact that they went out chasing Sagardoy’s truck thinking that he was a thief, but that they had been mistaken for person.
