The events occurred on Sunday in front of the Peruvian town of San Antonio del Estrecho when the division reported the presence of two vessels, a boat and a rowboat, and "in the development of this procedure shots were fired," explained the head of the Defense portfolio on X.
“As a result of these events, Colombian citizen José Miguel Gutiérrez Baquero, 82 years of age, owner of the cargo vessel, unfortunately lost his life,” said the minister of Colombia, and added that one of his sons was injured and is being treated in El Estrecho.
Two crew members of the vessel are detained by the Peruvian authorities, the information added.
"From very early on, communication has been maintained with the Peruvian Navy," assured Sánchez Suárez, who detailed that in conversations with his Peruvian counterpart they agreed to "prioritize" medical attention for the injured citizen, as well as provide "mutual cooperation" to facilitate the actions of the judicial authorities.
