THE COUNTRY | Manizales*

Three men were captured by the Police accused of robbing an apartment in Manizales.

They reportedly arrived at the victim's apartment in the El Sol neighborhood showing interest in buying it. One of them, apparently, became the one who spoke on the phone and would have walked to the kitchen, where he gagged the employee and threatened her with a knife.

Another pointed a firearm at the owner, insulted her, tied her up and took her to a studio where he demanded that she hand over the money she had, for which she agreed and gave him $13 million that she had saved.

The man who was allegedly with the employee left her alone and went to check other rooms, so she took advantage of it, untied herself and fled in search of help.
