A man shot to death in the west of Guayaquil, near the cemetery and the road to the coast; I had no identification

Several shots to the head had the body of a man, between 35 and 40 years old, who was found in the street, near the exit of the Panteón Metropolitano cemetery, in the road ear that connects the Perimetral road with the road to the coast.

The man had his wrists bound with transparent tape, according to a preliminary report. Also a T-shirt covered his head.

The mortal victim also has several tattoos on his body and has not yet been identified, as he was found without identity documents.

Criminalistics agents who arrived at the scene found several ballistic evidence in the area, as well as other types of evidence.

From the ballistic evidence, it is presumed that the shoulder was executed at the site where it was found.

Now the authorities seek to collect more information such as videos that may exist in the area to see in which car or vehicle the man was taken to the place.

It is believed that he was shot at dawn. His body was spotted, on the morning of this Saturday 30, by a driver who was passing by the place, around 07:30.

After the alert, dozens of police officers arrived to lift the body and collect evidence.

The lifting of the body was done before 10:00 this Saturday. And he was taken to Legal Medicine for an autopsy and rigorous analysis that also allow his identification to be known.

For the latter, in the Criminalistics laboratory your fingerprints will be taken.

That murder joins four others that have been registered in the last hours, between the night of Thursday, October 28 and the early hours of this 30.

In Zone 8, which includes Guayaquil, Durán and Samborondón, at least 541 violent deaths have been registered so far this 2021. And only in Guayaquil there are about 475 murders. (I)
