A dead assailant and his injured victim left a robbery that occurred this morning to a truck that was moving food in the capital.
The situation started in Maipú, when the cargo vehicle was stolen by four individuals, who kidnapped the driver.
Thanks to a complaint, Carabineros staff started following the truck, according to commander Gonzalo Urbina.
Thus, they reached them in the Las Acacias sector, where there was a exchange of shots between uniformed men and assailants. After that, they continued with their escape.
The persecution ended at the intersection of La Vara road with Route 5 in San Bernardo, where the individuals could not continue to flee before the traffic congestion.
There a new confrontation took place that left an assailant dead and the injured truck driver in one of his arms, but not life-threatening according to Urbina.
He also stopped two assailants who fled on a motorcycle stolen at the scene. In addition, a weapon was recovered.
A fourth involved remains on the run.
