Operative by man parapeted in Macul: Gope enters the house and finds the subject dead

A police operation was conducted by the Grupo de Operaciones Policiales Especiales (Gope) in the commune of Macul after neighbors reported hearing loud noises inside a house located on Av. Quilín and Brown Sur. The individual inside had reportedly taken his own life using a firearm. Authorities received a call to the emergency number 133 indicating the presence of a person with a weapon inside the home. Police attempted to contact the individual but were unsuccessful. After multiple failed attempts to communicate, Gope officers entered the residence and discovered the body without life, with a firearm nearby. The local police chief stated that the deceased had depression and had previously threatened to commit suicide several times. The Fiscalía ordered forensic investigations by Labocar, and traffic was temporarily suspended on Av. Quilín between Premio Nobel and Poeta Juan Guzmán Cruchaga.

A man found dead inside a house in the commune of Macul was discovered by police after he had reportedly taken his own life with a firearm. The incident occurred following an operation conducted by the Grupo de Operaciones Policiales Especiales (GOPE) of Carabineros this afternoon. The alert was raised by neighbors who heard loud shouts coming from the home located on Av. Quilín with Brown Sur street. A call to the 133 emergency number indicated that the man was inside the house with a firearm. Police arrived at the scene and attempted to make contact with the individual, but received no response from within the house. Eventually, GOPE officers were called in, who also failed to communicate with the man, who had previously threatened to commit suicide multiple times. According to Colonel Claudio Rosales of the Santiago Oriente Prefecture, police received a call to the 133 number reporting that there was a person with a weapon in a house in the commune of Macul. In response, authorities requested the presence of GOPE and a negotiation team. "The family told us this person had depression and due to this situation, the negotiation team began trying to persuade him," Rosales added, noting that there was no response from inside the house. "In such circumstances, the negotiation team entered along with GOPE and we confirmed that the person was deceased, with a firearm beside them." The Public Prosecutor's Office ordered procedures carried out by the Carabineros Forensic Laboratory (Labocar) at the site of the incident. As a result of the police operation, traffic remained suspended on Av. Quilín between Premio Nobel and Poeta Juan Guzmán Cruchaga streets.
