A 21-year-old man named Castro passed away in Paso Canoas, South of the country, on Friday night. The young man found death in a bullet to his head.
Castro, who worked as an informal taxi driver, had two clients in the back of the car, when one of them pulled the gun and shot him. The theory is that this could be the result of score settling.
The suspects, two subjects who are still unidentified, fled after committing the crime.
The victim was pronounced dead on the site. Later, his body was transferred to the Judicial Morgue for the corresponding autopsy.
In addition, the agents of the Judicial Investigation Agency (OIJ) are inspecting the car of the deceased as part of the investigation.
