Thefts reported at community chapel in Argentina and preschool in Mexico

Separate theft incidents have been reported at a religious community center in Argentina and a preschool in Mexico.

In Puerto Deseado, Argentina, thieves broke into the Capilla Don Bosco by forcing an emergency door and displacing a protective grate. The perpetrators stole food donations intended for a children's snack event scheduled for the upcoming weekend. Local police, including criminalistics and investigation divisions, are conducting inquiries to identify those responsible.

In Fresnillo, Zacatecas, Mexico, the Gabriela Mistral kindergarten was targeted by thieves who stole copper piping from the sanitary facilities. The theft was discovered after staff noticed a water leak. The intruders reportedly scaled a wall using an electrical meter base to reach the roof. While they attempted to enter classrooms by manipulating windows, metal protections prevented them from stealing equipment. Local authorities are expected to increase surveillance following a series of similar incidents at educational institutions in the area.
