UOCRA headquarters in Rosario and Santa Fe shot with intimidating messages to union members

The UOCRA headquarters in the cities of Rosario and Santa Fe were shot at and in both attacks the aggressors left intimidating messages addressed to union member Carlos Vergara.La Rosario branch of the UOCRA located at 27 de Febrero at 5200 was shot around 1:30 in the morning from where members of the Criminal Investigation Agency (AIC) found several pods served an intimidating poster addressed to Vergara: “Carlos Vergara get off because you’re not going to be calm anywhere. We are going to bother them everywhere,” according to Santa Fe media. According to police sources, there were several gunshot wounds at the entrance door of the premises. After the usual examinations, the troops carried out a search of the area to find the perpetrators without positive results, while the proceedings were referred to the 19th section and the prosecutor’s office on duty. The neighbors of the place were the ones who heard the shooting and immediately reported the event to the 911 emergency center. Minutes later, officers and non-commissioned officers of the Radio Electric Command (Corps) and the police station in the area (Public Order) arrived, who found that there were bullet wounds in the masonry of the building and also seized the pods served from the pistol with which the shots were fired. The Rosario police were in the place until the arrival of the AIC experts, located and identified witnesses, as well as verified the existence of public and private security cameras in the area to try to identify the authors of the aggression against the headquarters of the union of construction workers. Rosario’s attack occurred after a similar shootout against the UOCRA headquarters in the city of Santa Fe on Saturday afternoon in Ituzaingó at 2000, where two men on a motorcycle fired around 6:30 p.m. against the facade of the building and also left an intimidating sign. “Take him out of Carlos Vergara because you are not going to work quietly either in Santa Fe or in Rosario,” said the intimidating poster, directly directed against the UOCRA union member Rosario.
