FYI, I am giving translations a different color in order to distinguish them from my opinions or observations.
This story caught by eye for a couple of reasons.
Según el informe policial, la noche del domingo tres individuos asaltaron a un taxista bajo la modalidad secuestro express, y cuando se percataron de que eran perseguidos por la Policía trataron de fugar, emprendiéndose una persecución hasta que dos sujetos identificados como Juan José P. C. y Yandry Jimmy A. B. fueron aprehendidos cuando escapaban por la avenida Ordóñez Lasso.
According to the police reports, two individuals assalted a taxi under the method of "express kidnapping", but were later apprehended on Avenida Ordoñez Lasso.
Of course I had posted previously on my non-blog about a "express kidnapping" when that technique was used to mug a presidential candidate in Quito.
Ignacio Benítez, jefe de la Zona Seis de Policía, dijo que una vez fueron capturados e interrogados sobre el paradero del otro compinche, declararon que estaba en su puesto de trabajo.
Cuando los uniformados fueron a verificar esa información se encontraron con la novedad de que se trataba de Rómulo Anderson B. L., quien se encontraba en una caseta ubicada en las calles Darquea Granda y Rafael Fajardo, cumpliendo las labores de guardia de seguridad en el conjunto residencial Puertas del Sol.
Once captured they were interrogated about the whereabouts of another associate, and they declared he was at work.
When the police went to verify that information, they found the unique circumstance that the individual in question was located in a guard house fulfilling his dutes work at the residential building Puertas del Sol.
I am assuming the Puertas del Sol building he was working at was the following in Gringolandia, on Ordoñez Lasso, although the streets mentioned in the article are just behind the Oro Verde hotel, so there could be another Puertas del Sol.
