In a lightening fast response to the robbery and murder of a guard at the Cibao Savings and Loan Association office on Juan Pablo Duarte Avenue in Santiago, the police have arrested Robinson Alberto Bautista Mercedes, 27, originally from the town of La Vega and who resided in Licey al Medio. He was a former employee of the Banco de Reservas in Santiago. S&L employees identified Bautista as the person who shot Jose Rodriguez Bautista, the guard at the bank. After killing the guard, the assailant made off with over RD$850,000. The police recovered RD$292,500 in cash and a Certificate of Deposit from the Dominican Mortgage Bank (BHD) for RD$400,000. The weapon used to kill the bank guard has not been recovered, but it has been identified as a Smith and Wesson .38 cal, serial number CT-6292. The media has praised the swift police work, just one in a series of successful apprehensions over the past few weeks. The local police, under the leadership of General Raudo Ramirez Comas, have captured the killers of another watchman in Las Trinitarias, as well as an assailant who killed a messenger working for the Antonio Cruz group of betting parlors. These two incidents occurred on 7 and 9 May.
