Watch Viral Video As CellPhone Snatchers gets k!lled By Shop owner
On February 26, 2026, a robbery attempt at a cell phone store in Villa Mella, Santo Domingo Norte, escalated into a deadly confrontation. Surveillance footage captured the moment when the store owner shot and killed one armed robber while managing to wound another. This incident has ignited a fierce national discussion on the rights of citizens to defend themselves against crime.
Legal expert and anti-impunity advocate Jaquez has publicly voiced his support for the store owner, urging authorities to refrain from charging him in relation to the shooting. He is calling for the owner to receive a bravery award from the country’s Minister of the Interior and Police, Faride Raful. This appeal aligns with his ongoing campaign for more robust citizen protections as crime rates continue to rise in the Dominican Republic.
The post detailing the incident has gained significant traction, amassing 287,000 views and provoking supportive comments from the public, with many labeling the owner a hero for his actions. Despite this public sentiment, it is important to note that Dominican law mandates a prosecutorial review process to determine the legitimacy of self-defense claims under Article 39 of the Penal Code. This aspect of the law suggests that while public sympathy may favor the owner, legal scrutiny still lies ahead.
