Last week, I learned that one of the banks inside Ever Gotesco was held up.
I waited for a news report on TV that night and the following morning, looked for news items both in the papers and on the Internet that might give the details. Nothing. Or did I just miss it?
Anyway, because there was no “official” news, I have no way of knowing how true the story was. Just the same, hearing of this made me think of previous incidents in Ever. Who could forget the robbery on the evening of 25 December 2006, in which armed men dressed in SWAT uniforms made off with millions in sales and employees’ salaries? The abduction of Jonas Burgos also took place inside Ever, in April.
I decided to blog about it because I came across this article a few days ago, about four men who were caught while holding up a bus along East Avenue. The robbers led the police to a fifth man, who was caught in Ever while waiting for the robbers and their goods. According to the report, the fifth man allegedly bought stolen mobile phones from the gang.
Where these phones are eventually sold is anyone’s guess.
