Drugged him, robbed him, and left him in a coma: brutal robbery by a Tinder 'black widow'

A new case of violence linked to meetings through dating apps shook the Buenos Aires city of San Martín. A man was attacked by another with whom he had arranged a date through Tinder. After being drugged, he was stripped of all his belongings and ended up hospitalized in critical condition.

The date started with a match on Tinder

It all began when both men matched on the Tinder app and arranged a meeting. The striker, 48 years old, went to the victim's home and there executed his plan.

El "viudo negro", llega en el mismo auto de la víctima, a su casa.

Once inside the apartment, the striker drugged the man, leaving him unconscious. Taking advantage of his state, he called three more accomplices to carry out the robbery.

The group acted quickly. They stole valuable items, packed several in a suitcase, and also took the homeowner's car. Then they escaped on foot, according to the Buenos Aires Police.

Cameras and clues that reconstruct the event

Investigators have already analyzed the security footage of the building located in Villa Libertad. In the images, you can see the striker entering and how he leaves later, with evident complicity.

The next day, the victim woke up, still under the effects of the substances. Disoriented, he tried to get up and fell down the building's stairs, which caused him a severe brain edema.

Luego de dos horas, el "viudo negro" saca cosas de la casa de la víctima y se llevan el auto junto a dos cómplices.

He is currently in an induced coma, in critical condition. Doctors assure that his situation is extremely delicate.

Planned and team robbery

The case gained attention due to the criminal method: using a dating app to lure the victim, drugging him, and then acting with accomplices. This type of attack, known as "black widow" cases, is on the rise and raises alarms.

The robbery included not only appliances and personal belongings but also a vehicle. Everything was removed with apparent organization and prior knowledge of the surroundings.

The police continue the investigation, cross-referencing data with the cameras and seeking to fully identify the other three involved in the incident.
