The terror of insecurity overwhelms the inhabitants of the Conurbano. The authorities will be able to appeal to numbers, statistics, even the “story”, but the truth is that the impunity with which criminals are managed has long since ended in turning the entire Suburb into a possible scenario of insecurity, and that terror of robberies ended with another dramatic balance: a man thought a peddler was mugging his wife, rushed to the scene and stabbed him to death in the neck.
The insane scene occurred in the street Maipú, between Pueyrredón and Belgrano, commercial area of Banfield, where numerous street vendors parade every day. The versions of the event suggest that one of them, a young man offering cleaning products, he approached a woman asking her to buy some of his items.

As is known, the official had gone to a protest for the murder of Daniel Barrientos, a bus driver murdered in La Matanza, and the anger escalated to that beating now investigated by the Justice.
Between the screams and the arrival of the police where the seller had been stabbed, neither the names nor the ages of the protagonists of the dramatic event in Banfield were revealed, it was only indicated that the assailant was detained by the police, while the case was put under review. the investigation of the UFI 1 of Lomas de Zamora, which must now find out how the events occurred.
