Seg\u00fan informaci\u00f3n preliminar, el hecho ocurri\u00f3 alrededor de las 14:30, cuando sujetos armados llegaron hasta el establecimiento y dispararon en repetidas ocasiones contra dos personas que se encontraban en el sitio.<\/p>\n
Uno de los hombres cay\u00f3 sin vida dentro del local debido a la gravedad de las heridas, mientras que la segunda v\u00edctima fue trasladada de emergencia a una casa de salud bajo pron\u00f3stico reservado.<\/p>\n

Minutos despu\u00e9s, agentes de la Polic\u00eda Nacional acudieron a la escena para acordonar el \u00e1rea, recabar indicios bal\u00edsticos y realizar el levantamiento del cad\u00e1ver como parte de las primeras diligencias investigativas.<\/p>\n
