Chiropodist charged with killing boy in Puerto Vallarta

Police found the charred body of a five-year-old boy who disappeared from his Puerto Vallarta neighborhood after being sent by his grandmother to buy tortillas.

A 46-year-old man has been charged with murdering the boy.

According to police, Alexis Daniel Rosales Garcia went to the tortilleria, located two blocks from his home in Colonia Vista Hermosa,  at around 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 25.  He never returned.  Family and neighbors looked for him for several hours before calling the police. Officers initiated a thorough search of the neighborhood but were unable to locate the boy.

Friends distributed Rosales’ photograph widely on social media and although a few reports of sightings came in, all proved to be false.
