Justo Alí Manrique Castro (46) and his son Aarón Josué Manrique Sojo (9) were killed by blows and blunt objects, an incident that occurred early Saturday morning in the El Guamito sector, Guaicaipuro municipality (Los Teques), Miranda.
Versions obtained from security agencies revealed that the alleged perpetrator of this double homicide is a subject identified as Antonio José Esparragoza Trujillo (20), who along with others was drinking alcoholic beverages in Justo Ali’s home. When the others left, Antonio and Justo started arguing until they came to fists.

Neighbors reported the fire which was attended by firefighters who noticed the bodies.
A few hours after the event, agents of the Bolivarian National Guard arrested the alleged perpetrator of the double homicide and handed him over to the Public Ministry.
