A 19-year-old man, Bruno Bladimiar Dallosta, was killed in a shooting during a gang‑related confrontation in the Santa Teresita neighbourhood of Las Heras, Mendoza. Police linked the altercation to a dispute between families and local drug trafficking, and an investigation is ongoing to determine the shooter.

In a separate event in Maipú, Mendoza, a 24‑year‑old man, Franco Nahuel Guzmán, was arrested after stabbing his younger brother during a family argument. The victim suffered multiple wounds to the neck, back of the head and face and was hospitalized. Authorities seized the knife and a motorcycle connected to the case.

Both incidents are being investigated by local homicide units, with the victims receiving medical treatment and suspects held for further legal proceedings.
