MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – A 39-year-old woman was arrested last week, months after she allegedly robbed a man of his nearly million-dollar Richard Mille watch during the Miami Open tennis tournament at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.
According to her arrest report, Sonia Montenegro Bolanos, who police say is a Colombian citizen in the U.S. under a “non-immigrant visa,” was arrested Friday on charges of strong-arm robbery and conspiracy to commit strong-arm robbery.
An arrest warrant states that Montenegro Bolanos approached the 38-year-old victim on April 2 as he was on a pedestrian sky bridge, getting ready to leave the stadium.
Miami-Dade police said the victim was bumped from behind and when he turned around he saw Montenegro Bolanos with two of her fingers between his watchband and wrist.

The victim told police he immediately grabbed his watch, which is valued at $750,000, to prevent Montenegro Bolanos from taking it.
According to the warrant, the two struggled for the watch, at which time a second woman, identified in the warrant only by her last name “Sabogal,” snatched the watch from the victim and then passed it to an unknown third person as the victim grabbed her.
Police said the victim was holding on to both women when Montenegro Bolanos began to scream “rape.”
He then let both women go and the two fled south toward parking lot 18, authorities said.
Police said the entire incident was captured on surveillance video.

According to the warrant, Sabogal is also a Colombian citizen and is in the U.S. illegally.
The warrant states that both women “are a flight risk and may flee back to Colombia or to another state.”
As of Monday, Montenegro Bolanos was no longer appearing in the jail database.
It’s unclear whether Sabogal has been located at this time.
Anyone with further information about the robbery or the third person involved is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – The Pro Bowl rosters were announced Thursday morning, and the Miami Dolphins were completely shut out.
This comes just one year after the team had six players representing the AFC in the annual event.
Unlike last season, the Dolphins failed to have a single player selected in this year’s Pro Bowl voting, which is determined equally by fans, players, and coaches.
However, there’s still a chance for Dolphins players to make the roster later as injury replacements or if Super Bowl participants are unable to attend.

Miami was one of four teams without a player selected to the initial Pro Bowl rosters, joining the New Orleans Saints, New York Jets, and Tennessee Titans.
One of the most surprising Pro Bowl snubs was defensive tackle Zach Sieler.
Sieler was overlooked in favor of Cameron Heyward (Pittsburgh Steelers), Chris Jones (Kansas City Chiefs), and Justin Madubuike (Baltimore Ravens) for the three interior defensive line spots.
Dolphins tight end Jonnu Smith also may have missed out on the Pro Bowl due to stiff competition, with Brock Bowers delivering a historic season and Travis Kelce continuing to dominate.
Still, Smith put up impressive numbers that deserved recognition. He ranked fourth among NFL tight ends in receiving yards with 828 and tied for third in touchdowns with seven.

Smith became a vital piece of Miami’s offense, stepping up as a reliable target with run-after-catch ability that had been lacking in the position. With Tyreek Hill experiencing a down season and Jaylen Waddle dealing with injuries, Smith helped stabilize the passing game.
His advanced metrics were equally impressive: Smith’s 57.4 receiving EPA ranked second among all tight ends (trailing only 49ers tight end George Kittle), while his 0.58 EPA per target was third. He also ranked fourth in yards after the catch with 502 and fifth in yards per route at 2.1, according to NFL.com.
Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill also missed the cut for the initial Pro Bowl roster. Hill is on track for his lowest receiving yardage total (939) since 2019 and his fewest touchdowns (6) since 2016.
This marks a stark contrast to last season when Hill led the NFL with 1,799 receiving yards and earned the title of the league’s top player, as voted by his peers, for his team record-breaking performance. It’s also the first time Hill has not made the Pro Bowl since joining the Dolphins in 2022.
