A man was arrested for his alleged involvement in the assault and subsequent death of a customer at La Polar Restaurant in Mexico City’s Cuauhtémoc mayor’s office.
The death of the victim was disseminated on social networks through a live broadcast of the user Adriana Amaranto who denounced that the man was beaten by waiters of the establishment.
The Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC) reported that elements of the agency were conducting tours in the San Rafael neighborhood when they received a request for support from the Command and Control Center (C2) Center about an unconscious person on Guillermo Prieto Street.
Upon arriving at the scene, the police found a man outside the restaurant La Polar with “visible blood stains, so they requested emergency medical services.”
