A third thug can be seen recording the incident on a mobile phone before the trio make their escape, leaving a property engulfed in flames. The incident took place in Quininde, a small town to the north west of the capital Quito. The Independiente del Valle midfielder was reportedly not at home when the attack took place According to Need To Know, Cazares, who has 22 caps for Ecuador, was not at home when the attack took place and was instead in the capital with the rest of his Independiente del Valle team-mates. However, the outlet claim that that Cazares' mother is the sole occupant of the house and, according to local reports, the attack may have been linked to recent attempts to extort money from the star's family.

The midfielder has played for the likes of River Plate, Atletico Mineiro, Corinthians, Fluminense and Santos.
