Sergio Javier CO, 30, was riddled outside the nightclub, where a hostel also worked. He received nine bullet wounds, mostly in the chest.

The victim “entered, according to the administrator, with a group of friends. There was an argument inside and they went outside. Apparently they leave the place, but one of the subjects goes to a vehicle, a motorcycle takes out a firearm, advances towards the man with whom he had discussed and he shoots the shots, “said Jaime Tirado, captain of Chile circuit 9th of October district.

The man was transferred at that time, 01:00, to a nearby hospital and at approximately 05:45 he passed away. The nightclub, which has operating permits, was used as a ‘brothel’, according to neighbors in the sector.
