Armed robberies in Paraguay

Overview

In late October 2026, two separate incidents of armed violence occurred at commercial establishments in Paraguay. In Pedro Juan Caballero, a lone motorcyclist opened fire on an ice cream parlor, causing structural damage but no injuries. In the Naco area, two armed individuals robbed customers at a business, also resulting in no physical injuries.

By early November 2026, a new incident was reported in Minga Guazú, where four armed men intercepted a Multienvíos delivery truck on Route PY06. The assailants forced the driver and a companion from the vehicle and stole various high-value goods before abandoning the victims.
