Santo Domingo.-The Central Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DICRIM) reported that it has intensified the search for two men accused of shooting a National Police agent, assigned to that organization, on January 1st.
The fugitives were identified as Michael Franklyn De Óleo Batista, alias “La Para de la Isabelita”, and Kevin Chanel Matos Sánchez, alias “Niño Gatillo”, who are considered highly dangerous and allegedly heavily armed. Both are identified as responsible for the death of agent Amauris Leonel Feliz De Óleo.
