"Baltazar Sarmiento, the security guard from the Buca Shell Gas Station, any update on that?"

ACP Joseph Myvette, NCIB
"That investigation remains ongoing."

Reporter
"So nothing from the surveillance footage as yet that lead you guys to a suspect?"

ACP Joseph Myvette, NCIB
"No, but the police continues to work on that. I believe that the suspects could not have been clearly identified from the surveillances footage, so the police continue to do their investigation."

As we told you, Sarmiento was not armed at the time of the attack. He was originally from Honduras.
