The minor who killed two taxi drivers and a gas station attendant in 2024 was arrested again in Rosario.

The dangerous underage criminal identified as Darían Maximiliano G., the same one who murdered two taxi drivers and the gas station attendant Bruno Bussanich in March 2024, was detained again this weekend in the city of Rosario and will remain in preventive detention for two months, according to the court's decision.

The measure was ordered this Monday in a hearing held at the Criminal Justice Center, where the juvenile judge, María Dolores Aguirre Guarrochena, ordered his placement in the Specialized Center for Juvenile Criminal Responsibility.

Background

The killer, who is currently 17 years old, had been involved in one of the most shocking and brutal incidents recorded in the city in 2024.

At 15 years old, his image was disseminated nationally after cold-bloodedly murdering the 25-year-old gas station attendant Bruno Bussanich at a service station located at Mendoza 7600, amid the escalating violence linked to drug trafficking.

Additionally, the minor is also identified as the material author of the murders of taxi drivers Diego Celentano and Héctor Figueroa, which occurred during the same period.

At that time, due to his age, he was not punishable, and the Santa Fe court imposed alternative and protective measures without deprivation of liberty. He was even transferred out of the province as part of those provisions.

However, the young man reappeared in Rosario months later, being identified at least twice in police operations in public spaces.

The new detention occurred during the early hours of the weekend, as part of a routine check carried out by the police. The procedure took place at the intersection of Colastiné and Blomberg, in the area of the Rosario–Santa Fe highway head, around 5:30 AM.

According to the official report, the minor was traveling with an adult who was armed, which prompted his immediate apprehension.

Official sources also confirmed that the young killer had already been detained in November 2025, when he was 16 years old, in possession of 16 bags of drugs ready for sale. On that occasion, due to his status as a minor, he regained his freedom after judicial intervention.

The new arrest has reignited concerns among security authorities, who are alarmed both by his background and by his continued involvement in criminal activities.

In this context, it will be the court that decides the next steps regarding his situation within the current legal framework for minors. Meanwhile, the young man will remain deprived of liberty for at least two months, according to the measure ordered by the intervening magistrate.
