Regional crime and accidents: Fatal crash in Paraguay and Interpol arrest in Argentina

In Paraguay, a head-on collision between a Toyota and a Hummer in J. Augusto Saldívar resulted in the death of 42-year-old Miguel Ángel Velázquez. While the other driver, Ramón Cabrera Acosta, was uninjured and passed a sobriety test, the victim's family is demanding further investigation, including blood tests and security footage, to ensure justice.

In Spain, a 47-year-old Turkish national was shot in the face while dining at a restaurant in Málaga's Muelle Uno area. Two unidentified individuals reportedly opened fire before fleeing the scene. The victim underwent surgery and survived the attack.

In Argentina, authorities in Corrientes arrested Gilmar Busanello, a 56-year-old Brazilian man wanted by Interpol for a 38-year prison sentence related to sexual abuse. During the raid on a local estate, police seized a rifle, a shotgun, a pistol, a revolver, ammunition, and significant amounts of cash in both pesos and US dollars.

In Honduras, police arrested two sisters in Tocoa, Colón, suspected of orchestrating the murder of Ingrid Corina Fúnez. Investigators believe the women hired two men to carry out the killing for 20,000 lempiras, potentially motivated by a personal dispute.

In Chile, a 33-year-old security guard is in critical condition after being shot twice while intervening in an armed robbery at Mall Plaza Maule in Talca. The guard attempted to protect an elderly victim during the incident before the assailant fled the scene.
