During the day of this Friday, and first thing in the morning, staff from the PDI Homicide Brigade detained in their private homes a Juan Solís and Robert Sepúlveda. Both, up to five days ago, belonged to the 57th Florida Police Station and were suspected of being the authors of a shooting against people who were demonstrating in Florida on Monday, April 27.
The eastern metropolitan regional prosecutor, Manuel Guerra, confirmed the diligence to Third and announced that both police officers will be formalized this afternoon as co-authors of the crime of repeated frustrated homicide against the 10 people who were that night at the intersection of Vicuña Mackenna and Trinidad streets.
Despite being identified and having been discharged, the Public Ministry I was awaiting the result of ballistic expertise that they determine that both ex-carabinieri would have seized weapons the night they were traveling in a vehicle – without a license plate – they shot a group of people who were protesting against the police during that day in which the anniversary of the Carabineros was commemorated. The victims resulted in various injuries, although all are out of life risk.
Today at 4:00 p.m. the ex-uniformed will be formalized at the Santiago Justice Center. The evidence gathered these days against the former members of the 50th Police Station will be displayed at the hearing. The East Prosecutor’s Office will request their preventive detention and the existing evidence against both will be detailed. Mainly it will take account of the statements of witnesses, the work of the Police Investigative Section of the Carabineros that identified them and the ballistic expert opinions of the PDI Lacrim that account for nitrate residues in the hands of both defendants, which determines that that night they occupied weapons.
The alleged state of drunkenness in which they carried out this shooting is also under investigation, but since they were not driving the vehicle in which they moved that night, there is no breathalyzer in this regard. The Public Ministry investigates the participation of a third suspect who was driving the vehicle that night.
Contradictory statements related to the Public Ministry file made that, at first, both were free pending scientific evidence that would allow the charges to be brought to justice today. Solís and Sepúlveda risk up to 15 years in prison.
