Lalo Villar, known for his street food content on 'La ruta de la garnacha', publicly revealed a robbery that struck his offices in Mexico City. The incident took place on December 8, when two individuals forced entry, cut the electricity, and looted the premises for about six hours. His brother stumbled upon the scene after hearing suspicious noises and alerted immediately, though the intruders had already fled.
In a video posted on social media, Villar displayed the ravaged interior, with items scattered everywhere and the space entirely stripped. 'We were robbed of everything, guys, they broke into the office and emptied it; this happened on December 8. I'm also alerting you because it's a reality—the crime is rampant, it's not rumors, it's true,' the influencer stated. Security cameras captured the suspects' faces, whom he described as professionals, likely behind recent thefts in the area.
Among the stolen items were key tools for his work: computers, tripods, recording lights, professional cameras, drones, stabilizers, merchandise, editing equipment, and monitors. The thieves used large suitcases to haul it all away, managed by just two people. Villar, owner of a taquería, noted that the offices had been their 'safe place' for years, but he now weighs relocating to start anew.
He has filed complaints alongside other victims and seeks public help to identify the perpetrators. 'You can see their faces; they forced the door and entered, disconnected the electricity,' he detailed in the video. This event highlights rising insecurity in the capital, urging greater vigilance for commercial properties.
