Damián Valdez-Galloso, identified as a key figure in the investigation surrounding El Taiger, was apprehended on Friday in New York. This development comes nearly a month after the tragic death of the Cuban reggaeton artist. According to Daniel Benítez on his YouTube channel, Valdez-Galloso is now in police custody in the city.
Authorities are expected to release more information about the arrest soon. At present, it is known that Valdez-Galloso was the individual sought by Miami police for his potential insights into the case. "Currently, my sources are unable to specify the charges under which he is being held," Benítez noted. "This is a crucial step in the investigation as authorities clearly believe he holds significant information that could resolve the El Taiger case. While he is not charged with murder at this time, he remains a person of interest," Benítez emphasized.
