CLTwo men were placed in preventive detention after being formally charged with completed homicide and attempted homicide for a shooting incident in the Cerro Navia commune of Santiago. The attack occurred around 4:00 PM on November 1, 2026, when the suspects fired from a moving vehicle at two men standing in a side street, killing a 33-year-old man and injuring a 24-year-old man. Prosecutors highlighted that the suspects continued driving through the area in the same car used for the crime, which aided police in their quick arrest nearby. The investigation was conducted by the Metropolitan Public Ministry’s ECOH unit in coordination with Carabineros’ OS-9 special unit, resulting in the recovery of a firearm. The court determined that releasing the defendants would pose a danger to public safety and set a 120-day deadline for the ongoing investigation.
