According to neighbors, the now victims were in the house when antisocials on a motorcycle smashed the door to execute them.
A man and a woman were killed with more than twenty bullets inside a house located in the Julio Potes cooperative, in southern Guasmo.
The murders were committed on Tuesday afternoon, in the presence of two children.
According to neighbors, the now victims were in the house when antisocials on a motorcycle smashed the door to enter and kill the man and woman.
Personnel from special police units were mobilized to the area to initiate investigations of the case. In the place they found drugs, according to the head of the Southern District, Ricardo Manitio.
According to the first investigations, the motivation for the double crime could be a sentimental or micro-trafficking problem, said Manitio.
Meanwhile, at dawn this Wednesday in block 7 of Flor de Bastión, in the northwest of Guayaquil, a young man was also killed by individuals who were transported by motorcycle and was intercepted when he arrived at his home.
The National Police investigates these new murders. In Zone 8, made up of Guayaquil, Durán and Samborondón, more than 550 violent deaths have been registered to date.
Despite the fact that a state of exception is in force and in several provinces of the country, including Guayas, the military carry out control operations to counteract insecurity, the crimes have not stopped. (I)
