Family held up at gunpoint and car jacked in front of Police Hospital.

A mother and her two children were just going home for the night when they were robbed just a 5 minute walk away from their home. Isabel Labarca remembers that she was “scared, screaming, and afraid” when it all went down. Two men in their late 20’s were dressed in polos. The carjacker not only took the family’s car but their wallets as well.

Maria La Barca had to get her 4 year old son out of the back seat just before the carjackers took off in the vehicle . Isabel recollects the men were . Isabel said that her mother stayed calm throughout the whole robbery because she’d been the victim of of previous crimes.

As soon as they got home La Barca had called all of her banks to cancel the cards. The crime did not go because of such high police corruption and “the fear of seeing the person who robbed you at the police station”. After Isabel settled from the shock she thought that it was very weird that no one was around the police hospital to help and stop the robbers .
