The streets of Belgrano, Buenos Aires, buzzed with activity hours after a dramatic incident involving union leader Facundo Moyano and model Candela Arizaga. Police vehicles and curious onlookers gathered outside Moyano's building on Avenida del Libertador, as judicial authorities began their investigation into the early morning events.

According to the case file, the sequence began around 5 a.m. when two emergency calls reported a young woman running semi-naked through the streets. Police located Moyano and Arizaga a few blocks away. A street vendor who witnessed part of the scene described Arizaga as barely dressed and appearing to seek help. "She was practically not dressed. She had netting-like clothing, I couldn't see much more because the police were right there. They told me she was running asking for help, then the police took her," the vendor told Clarรญn.

Camilo, the building superintendent, provided further details, describing Arizaga as "completely out of her mind" and in danger of being hit by a vehicle. He recounted how Moyano attempted to help her, but she broke free and tried to board a parked bus. "She saw me, and also a police officer who tried to help her. I stayed with the girl's dog. He (Facundo Moyano) sat down for a second, took a breath, and kept running after her," Camilo told the newspaper. He added that he was looking after the dog and asked for the information to be passed to Arizaga, noting the dog was her primary concern at that moment.

The investigation is ongoing, with judicial measures including analysis of security footage and witness interviews. Arizaga, 23, remains hospitalized at Pirovano Hospital, where her lawyer, Diego Storto, visited her. Police were later seen arriving at Moyano's building as a search warrant was requested by the prosecutor.
