As if it were a fictional western, the security cameras of the Buenos Aires district of Los Polvorines captured several attacks by a man robbing pedestrians while horseback riding.

The thief rider wanders several blocks until he finds his victims, whom the horse throws at them to intimidate them.

The images show how a hooded man, who was identified as Mariano Ojeda, 21, follows 2 young men to rob them, who manage to run away. In other footage, you see how he intercepts a woman.

All these events took place in broad daylight and a residential area of Los Polvorines, in the "Old West" style.

Finally, this Tuesday afternoon (September 8) the Buenos Aires police arrested the thief rider on Carlos Pellegrini Street at 5200 in that town, when he was in full action. In his possession, they hijacked several cell phones.
