Last weekend in Hinche, Haiti, the National Police of Haiti (PNH) arrested Dominican Wendy Romero Santana, who is accused of being the head of a gang of car thieves. Four of her accomplices, whose names and nationalities were not disclosed by the authorities, were also arrested as reported in Haiti Libre. The alleged criminals were arrested in a white Hyundai Tucson SUV. The vehicles were allegedly stolen in Haiti to be sold in the Dominican Republic. Romero was handed over to the Dominican authorities.
During the operation, Haitian police seized two 9 mm revolvers, 4 magazines and 53 bullets, a 12 gauge rifle and 67 cartridges, six US passports and an Argentine passport, as well as two Dominican vehicle plates with the numbers G381465 and G357029.
