The National Police reported that a man who had been actively sought for almost a month for the double homicide of a married couple in the Villa Mella sector was killed last night when he and another man confronted a patrol of the institution that was following him to apprehend him.

The deceased is Victor Manuel Montilla Jerez, alias “El Grande,” 32 years old, who lived in the Los Guaricanos sector of the municipality of Santo Domingo Norte.

The wounded man is Adonis Dolores, 26, resident of the same address, who was shot in his left leg.

According to the preliminary report, both men were spotted by the agents when they were driving along kilometer 33 of the Las Americas highway in a black Toyota Corolla, and upon noticing the police presence, they dismounted from the vehicle and shot at the members of the patrol of investigations (Dicrim).

According to the preliminary report, the agents repelled the aggression with return fire. In this circumstance, Montilla Jerez was mortally wounded, and Dolores was wounded.
