On August 1, 2026, 19-year-old footballer Santiago Vega was shot in the neck outside a pub in Ingeniero White, Buenos Aires Province. Police apprehended 25-year-old Joaquín Eleazar Larraburu after a vehicle pursuit following the shooting. Larraburu, who was found with a .22-calibre pistol, was charged with aggravated homicide.

By mid-August, residents, friends, and family members held a silent march in Ingeniero White to demand justice. While Larraburu remains in detention, the victim’s father, Marcelo Vega, has alleged that “there are four accomplices still at large,” indicating the family believes additional individuals were involved in the crime.
