Sources close to the investigation have told EFE that the alleged aggressor had open files for gender-based violence and that, precisely, he had received the service separation resolution a few days ago.
Therefore, he no longer had his service weapon and killed his ex-partner, with whom he had three children, with one that he would have stolen either from the lockers or taken from a colleague, the same sources specified.
The incident took place shortly before 13:30 when the alleged perpetrator, assigned to the Zamora Command, entered the Llanes facility and fired at his ex-partner.
Sources close to the investigation have told EFE that the man, who has been arrested, opened fire against her and against the colleagues who tried to repel the aggression. In the exchange of gunfire, a lieutenant was seriously injured by a bullet in a leg.
