“He had the glass down and then he was approached.” This is what witnesses say about an attempted robbery in which a man was injured, in the morning hours of this Wednesday, June 14.
The case occurred on Calle 60 Carrera 24, around 9 a.m., when Jorge Alberto Escorcia Márquez, 41, was driving at that address in a Suzuki-branded vehicle, registration number LLZ-582.
At that point, two strangers matched his speed and told him to stop the vehicle, pointing a firearm at him. Apparently, in the middle of a maneuver, Escorcia Márquez tried to prevent the robbery.
However, this led to the criminals firing the gun once and attempting to touch the victim at neck level as they fled.
According to the father’s account, his son managed to get out of the car and move to his residence, a few blocks away from where the event took place. “He arrived bloodied, told me what had happened, left me all his belongings, we helped him and he was transferred to a care home.”
The 41-year-old man was taken to Adelita de Char District Road while authorities agreed on where to leave the car.
