Two men killed in Soledad (Atlantic): one of them was a victim of suicide and the other was killed after being identified as a murderer by the Police

On Tuesday afternoon, two men were killed in the neighborhood of Villa Muvdi in Soledad, Colombia. One was the victim of a hit-and-run attack by a gunman who entered his home and shot him multiple times before fleeing with an accomplice on a motorcycle. The second man was shot dead by police during a confrontation after being identified as the perpetrator of the homicide. During the operation, police recovered a gun and a motorcycle believed to have been used in the initial violent incident. According to preliminary investigations, the attacker, Samir Eduardo Barranco Ospino, had prior legal records related to drug trafficking and was linked to the criminal organization known as 'Los Pepes.' He was injured during the exchange of fire with police but later died in the hospital. His accomplice managed to escape, though reports suggest he may have also sustained injuries.
